Guest guest Posted August 24, 2003 Report Share Posted August 24, 2003 Hi Everyone, Well, here is my iron update. I went to see my surgeon to check on what I thought was an incisional hernia (it is, dang it) and I told her about seeing the hemotologist about my iron. She switched me from Fe-Tinic (generic Niferex) to Trinsicon, saying that her patients have had good luck with the Trinsicon. I had a hemo. appt. scheduled for this past Thursday but I changed it to a couple weeks from now to give the new iron a bit of a chance to work it's magic (hopefully). Has anyone out there tried Trinsicon and had luck with it? Please someone give me hope because the next step is iron infusions which I'm trying to avoid but at the same time I'm getting tired of playing around with all these various forms of iron. I am really thankful to all of those who have tried to help me with my iron issue. It does help to know I'm not alone in this. It seems so strange to me why some of us have such a problem with this and others don't. Then there are the people who even after WLS have HIGH iron (you know who you are!)....I don't get it. Thanks again....this is a great group. Sharon in Indy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
