jamy,

this is a great site..and the iron deficiency answered several questions for

me. in fact, i'm sending that page to my doctor along with a letter

questioning her assessment that my ferritin was normal (it's obviously low) and

pointed

out that it was actually lower than shown if she's going on the assumption my

TIBC is low because of antibodies. If that is the case, the ferritin is

falsely elevated because of same. I think the TIBC is low because of

malabsorption actually.

But anyway, this is a great site...and yes..now I understand why Janie is all

the time saying " have you had your ferritin checked? "

thanks, gals.

Oh - one question...I thougt Iron Sulfate was the treatment of choice for

iron deficiency..but I see your doctor recommends ferrous sulfate. can you tell

me why - and what the difference is?

yes. i agree. i think our issues our different...and i also think that it

also means that we have to look at our blood labs in a different way.

same thing, it is the dose he uses that is not common. It seems that only in

the last year are most people understanding how our iron levels are so

strange.

He has Hashi plus is brilliant and a teacher and researcher. He is hard to

keep on tract when he starts thinking, but is able to think outside the box

which we with autoimmune issues need.
