Dosage of polysaccharide iron per day?

Just curious if anyone can help me out here. I have been working 7 days a week, 10-12 hours per day for the last 5 months, and I kind of let my iron intake slip during that period of time. Last blood work showed iron level of 16. Not sure which reading that is, but I know it should be between 35-135. So anyway, now that I know that working my tail off isn't the only reason I am tired, how much polysaccharide iron should I be taking every day to help boost my levels, while not over doing it? I purchased some from Vitalady, and found some at my local pharmacy to hold me over till I get my order. Both are 150mg elemental. Can anyone suggest a safe daily dosage for me to boost my iron levels back up? Much thanks, Greg
