> Hi, I'm wondering what others have experinced while taking iron

shots. I just had 2 on Friday. This is the first time I've gotten 2

at one time and I am not feeling well. I'm experiencing muscle

sorenes all over and my stomcach is upset. The shots Friday were my

3rd and 4th. My blood counts have not improved yet. Is there anyone

out there who can share their experience with me? How long did it

take before you started improving, etc.?<<<

I started iron injections about 3 weeks ago. I get one a week, but I

do know they told me that some people have icky reactions to it.

Maybe two at at time is just too much. Can't they give them on 2

different days in the week? I found a nurse friend who was willing to

give them to me and just had the surgeon to write a prescription for

the iron and the syringes. Are you getting them in your bottom?

I was prescribed an 8 week course and was told to have the injections

for 7 weeks and then get labs done. We will decide then if I need

another 8 week course or if I need something more - IV iron.

I suggest that you speak up and ask that they be given on different

days.
