For -Iron

[Guest guest]

I think you should get that Iron test. I actually did this and

insisted to my doctor to test me for ferritin in June. It was on the

very low end of the scale. He told me now to take a multiple with iron.

But I' not sure that is enough. I am also trying to eat more vegetables

and things that give you more iron. He then will retest me I guess in 6

months or so.

My HG was normal also.

I would really try to get this test. I found out that this is an

expensive test and doctors try not to get you to have this to save the

insurance companies money.

By the way I wrote you a letter a day or so ago. Hope you got it.

I called the place with the liquid DHEA. I was wondering if it is liquid

wouldn't it still get to your liver and give you acid problems. I don't

quite get this. I also found out it has 17 mg. of vit C in it. So I felt

this might be contradicting here. The creams also have not worked

because they have so many ingredients.

I decided I will have to get a cream in prescription for the compounding

pharmacy.

I have an appt with my internist on thursday and he might be willing to

give this to me. I will have to see. I took a blood test today for

cholesterol and thyroid. I do have several issues to talk to him about.

That is why I decided not to do this on the phone but see him in person.
