Proferrin Users (XP)
I am curious to hear from those of you who use Proferrin as your choice of iron. I'm particularly interested in knowing why you are on this iron, any side-effects you have experienced, and if your levels are within range.
As background information, I have a hard time tolerating and absorbing iron. Proferrin has been recommended to me from others on this site in the past, but the cost is very prohibitive. Unfortunately, the only iron I have been able to take more than a few weeks (Sundown Perfect), has turned on me and I can no longer tolerate it. I have tried at least 9 different types and brands of iron, including another heme iron, so I am worried Proferrin will be another failure, but with a bigger price tag.
Thank you!
