Ferratin infusion

2018-06-16 11:15:17
I had my blood test two days back and my ferratin level has come very low (6). Doctor has suggested ferratin infusion to increase the levels. The infusion is on Monday morning and I am traveling to overseas same day in the afternoon and it's a long journey. Is it a good idea to go for it.
