I'm glad your bloodwork came back good, I'm always anxious since for so many years it was bad.

Nice job on the bloodwork.
Def start with Proferrin and don't let your ferretin go any lower. I used to get so dizzy just getting up from my chair or the couch and now nothing.

I've been getting dizzy lately and that is NOT fun. Mine is caused by inner ear issues since I was sick last month and I've been swimming. I don't need any more dizzy in my life. What were your Ferritin levels before infusion and now?

So before infusion my ferretin was 6!

After infusion it was 49 (normal range but still pretty low).

I got my infusion late Dec early Jan and by June-July I was feeling the dizziness again. I knew it's going back down. By luck I saw Grim's answer to somebody about vitamins and his mention of Proferrin. I figured I have nothing to lose. In a span of one week of taking one every day the dizzy feeling went away.

I've taken the preferring for years, and my ferritin was 375. The ham probably helps too.
