I am also anemic with low iron so undergoing a series of infusions.  First one was a drug that insurance refused for additional use so now have had 2 approved venofer infusions.  After first infusion, had slight burning In one foot, joint ache then before returning home, noticed swelling in both feet.  They said swelling is a little unusual.  Possibly due to IV fluids.

Went for second Venofer yesterday and no limb swelling but omg, When I got home, I experienced severe upper intestinal bloating (only way to describe it). I could not get in a comfortable position.  Tried to distract myself and relax in an epson salt bath.  Finally received slight relief by vomiting and then could lay down and sleep it off.
Discomfort was upper area near ribs.

I must note that I am being treated for ulcers that are near duodenum bulb and small intestine.  We think this has caused almost a "back up" of food at times which causes me to get sick. I am able to have bowel movements but my stomach doesn't always empty.

I am curious if anyone has gut reaction to the Venofer?

thank you!
