Hi guys
I guess my ferritin level is 3 and I will have to get IV iron. My question is Ive done venofer infusion since diagnosis but past couple times its made things worse for me abdominal pain, diarhea. Some people in the forum earlier suggested to try ferinect. I am considering switching to see if that may work better for me. Has anyone had any negative or postive results with it? Would like as much details as possible. I am too scared to start something new especially during the virus going on.

Thank you!!!

D, look on page 3, you have a thread titled "iron infusions" & you received some responses that should help you out.

Feriinject certainly helped me. I had very good tolerance to it and it raised my my Hgb from 9.1 to 10.8 in ten days. I took 2 doses of 500 each in a with a 7 day gap in between . I have discontinued oral iron in the meanwhile since I am highly intolerant to oral iron. I would like to take another 2 doses of it till my levels stabilize
