Sounds like u got all the scoop so just wanted to wish u good luck. How many of these r u having? My patients tell me two things all the time about their IV iron.....how much better it makes them feel and how cinstipating it is, so make sure u take something. I think miralax works great. Good luck and sure hope it makes u feel better,

I am only having the one, bloodwork in a month to confirm my #'s are okay and possibly 2nd if need be. I'm probably having my revision surgery in March, so will definitely have my #'s up for that!
Hugs to you!

You mentioned steroids. The only times that I have taken them, I got incredibly hungry until I stopped taking them. I haven't had them post WLS. You might want to check how they effect you. If you find yourself extra hungry, come up with a good plan of eating to keep the cravings down.
