Re: Ferritin and the doctor

[Guest guest]

Ok - had a call from the doc about my correspondence expressing concern over

my low Ferritin (34) and wanting to take iron supplementation, but wanting to

check liver function first.

Read this:

The doctor told me she thought I might do more harm than good if I took iron

supplementation. But that if I took it, I would need to come back in in six

weeks to have it checked again. (I had mentioned checking it again in 3

months).

More harm than good...when I'm terribly fatigued and short of breath and

bunch more symptoms of iron deficiency?

Are they all idiots?

Brainless?

Clueless?
