What are you taking for Iron and where do you get it.  How many mg? I need to get something but I am finished with bariatric Advantage. Thanks  Hugs Kristen

Hi Kristen! I am anemic and my doctor has me taking two (2) Feosol pills per day.  It did the trick; my iron is slowly creeping upward.  You can get the pills at the Giant store in the vitamins aisle. Good luck!  ~~  Trish

My levels were also low, so I started taking Vitron C (2 a day) from Walmart.

On the list from my DR's nutritionist, it is down for a daily suppliment that is to be taken by everone.  He specifies Ferrous Gluconate. Not the Sulfate. I had to ask the pharmacist at wal-mart and they had it behind the counter. I don't have the exact dosage here at work, but can post it later.
