forvia vitamins, anemia & absorption issues

marzMember

Thanks to those that mentioned forvia vitamins (for people with absorption issues) on this site.(http://www.inovera.com/forvia/)
I have been anemic since my BCIR 12 years ago. I have had various IV iron treatments over the years, the latest being ferraheme. I usually get treatments every 4-6 months. I started taking the forvia vitamins 7 months ago and was pleasantly surprised that my latest blood test was one of the best ever (HB 13.4, ferratin 120.)This will be the first time in 12 yrs that I have NOT needed the iron treatment after a 7 month break. The dr. thinks maybe my body has finally adjusted--but it's quite a coincidence that I started the vitamins after the last treatment 7 months ago.
I take 2 vitamins a day and that is really the only thing I have changed. I am not eating as many veggies as I used to, since they don't seem to digest as well as they used to.(use a blender when possible for veggies)
Just wanted to say THANKS and hope this will help someone else with a pouch.

Thanks for posting this! I'm going to tell my daughter about this and hope she can take it. She can't take the oral iron and she had an extreme severe reaction to the ferrahame.
