Needing Iron Infusion/Injection... Referral (Ohio)??

[Guest guest]

I am looking for a doctor who does iron injections/infusions in Ohio...Would it

be too much that he/she knows about RT3 and that Ferritin needs to be around

'50' to at least start tolerating T3???

Thank you!!!!

Sorry, can't help with Ohio specifically, but here's some suggestions I sent to

a friend who was looking for Venofer IVs...

Regarding finding a place to get Iron IVs: takes a little looking sometimes.

Venofer IV Iron is prescribed though a regular pharmacy, so you can ask at

pharmacies for the names of doctors that prescribe Venofer. Venofer is often

used to treat the low iron suffered by kidney dialysis patients; so if you can

find a dialysis center near you (often located in or near hospitals), the staff

there may know doctors who are familiar with Iron IVs. Sometimes near hospitals

there are " infusion centers " , who give different kinds of outpatient IVs,

usually including Iron, if you're lucky there's an infusion center near you.

Hope this helps.
