Guest guest Posted December 15, 2003 Report Share Posted December 15, 2003 I'm not sure if anyone mentioned iron. With RA you often get the " anemia of chronic disease " and anytime I have stopped taking iron supplements (ferrous gluconate in my case) I become very tired/lacking energy. I take 2 a day though the doctor actually had recommended 3 - 3 set off the stomach problems. Luckily the gastrointestinal system has improved - gall bladder removed and started drinking lactose free milk. The difference due to the milk was amazing. I was ready to try a dietician just to get a diet of things I could eat and now as long as I am careful and moderate it's fine. (I found out moderate does not include a Harvey's cheeseburger and fries with chocolate mousse cake) annette Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
