Anemic with 9 serum iron

2017-07-14 21:52:07
Extremely tired. Went to the doctor. Did my blood work. Everything was normal except my serum iron was low at a 9 and vitamin D was low. Instructed to take 325mg of Ferrous Glutamate and 2000 mg of vitamin D once a day. I have been taking this for a year already so I doubled dose for 2 days then started my menses two weeks early today.
