Hey Savannah,

I only mention it because my ferritin was low normal and I was not anemic, not even close to anemic. They put me on iron supplements and it barely improved, partially I think to absorption issues that I have and the insulin resistance.

I now take precription iron supplements once a day (its called repliva) because the over the counter did nothing to improve it. And within three months my symptoms have improved greatly both the fatigue, the neuropathy symptoms and the shortness of breath, rapid heartbeat etc.

Then I tried for two months without cuz I thought that I had enough iron stores and within two months I was back to where I was.

Maybe its worth asking the doc for the prescription iron.

I hope you get some answers soon.
