How many mg of iron should I be taking a day?

On one website it said ferrous sulfate (is that the same thing as iron?) 325 mg twice a day. Does that sound right? Is this correct? I'm a post-op RNY (11/15/99) and trying to do better on taking all my vitamins since I feel so tired all the time. Any answers you have would be wonderful! Thanks! Stephanie in Alabama
