Guest guest Posted January 15, 2010 Report Share Posted January 15, 2010 Felt so bed yesterday that I went to my doctors office today. He listened to my lungs,nothing. ECG was unchanged from the last time I checked it. He told me to come backin the end of next week to do Ferritin.So, about the iron IV: My GP told me today that taking iron IV is a bad idea, beause it gives you high Ferritin very fast, and it can damage the liver even if the Ferritin won't over the top range after getting the IV. Then, the value goes down.. He talked about the iron IV like it was pointless. His personal opinion was that I don't need a higher Ferritin than 25 to tolerate T3. I am stopping my iron supplements today to test my Ferritin, the proper way, in 5 days. Can I just go down from 150 mg to nothing? It's starting iron supplements that's more difficult, like I need to raise it slowly, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
