Anyone having problems with low iron and B-12?
Hey friends! Just wondering where you are standing with your blood levels. I've been on two 65 mg feosol iron pills a day for 3 months already and my levels are still really low. We're now trying four pills a day! My B-12 is also low so we're upping that a bit too.
Any ideas on what has worked for any of you is much appreciated!!

Lori,
I've been taking Trinsicon [Flotrin] since the surgery and my blood tests have been great. One in the AM and one in the PM, and that's it to keep the B12 and iron in good territory [also the folic acid]. That, a low dose BP med an 81mg Asprin and a Cholesterol med are all I take now. If you look closely, that resembles that new Combo Pill they've mentioned on TV lately.
