My daughter remains anemic, as I know others on here also have an issue with. She asked her primary care what to take and she suggested any oral or chewable iron. In the past she had taken "ferralet" a prescription iron but since her last surgery in July it really adds to the stomach/intestinal pain she is already having at times.
My daughter had iron infusions, venofer, and that gave her "flu like" symptoms. The last iron infusion they gave her was the "ferrhame" and she had a "anaphylaxis" type reaction to it, bad news.
I've done the searches on here but was wondering if anyone could respond with what they are taking and does it give you any issues?
Thank you.
