Labs on Friday
I thought I was being all smart scheduling before I started my cycle and wouldn't you know it....it's moved a week. I swear I can't win.
I don't know what to do to improve my iron levels, other than what I'm doing now. I take chewables with iron in them and the Bariatric Advantage iron chewables (my wls doctor insisted on them).
How much iron are you getting total? Are you taking it with vitamin C? At least two hours away from calcium?

But you're not taking calcium? Um, you want to have bones and teeth in a couple years, right? And you understand how our lack of stomach acid on top of our bypassed duodenum makes it very hard to get enough calcium from foods we eat?
