How long it will be before I start to feel better?
I had the same problem and ended up getting iron infusions once a month for about a year and a half. I started feeling better by the 2nd or 3rd dose. Hang in there!

I would definintely not wait until May to get it checked again! Why does he want to wait that long? Many people need several infusions to get their level up, in which case you won't feel better yet.

I got the treatments monthly and my hematologist did blood work quarterly, so every 3 months I'd get checked.to see where the levels were at. It took awhile to get them to the normal range, but they've been steady for about 2 years now.
