Bump Bloodwork and low ferritin

[Guest guest]

Hope you dont mind me placing my message again. Just worried about my ferritin I

don't know what to do about it

> Hi all

> Hope you can help

> I don't understand why my ferritin has dropped so much from 30 to 19 in space

of 10 weeks. Need to explain, I have done a saliva adrenal test in the last week

so had to stop nutri adrenal supplements also had to stop t3 tablets for a few

days as I overdosed and bloods were taken during this time, also time of the

month which I have heavy blood loss. I am taking spatone twice a day but didn't

take the week leading up blood test.

> Everytime I go to the docs I request they do my ft3 iron and b12 but they

don't send back my Ft3 only my Tsh they sometimes send me T4 which is useless as

I don't take it so annoying. They want me to have more blood taken but this will

decrease my iron and vit b further I would think ???they have done this 3 times

now. It's a fight trying to get your health sorted but it's also a fight to get

your doctors to carry out bloodwork correctly but then again is it the lab who

do their own thing as u dud see the nurse wrote all my requests in the blood

form !

> Sorry I dont normally sound so negative but I feel I am constantly fighting a

battle. I have been through thyroid cancer radio therapy which was hard enough I

just wish my doctors/lab would just do what I ask of them it would make life

alot easier.
