I've been feeling increasingly worn out the last few weeks and basically wondering why day to day life feels like such a struggle. Concentration has been poor and just feel a bit meh.
Went to the doctor, got a blood test and my ferritin level (iron stores) came back as 5 . The doctor said it should be at least 10 and ideally above 60. He's put me on iron tablets and been told to eat lots of iron rich food.
Has anyone else had this? Did you feel rubbish too... or am I just being pathetic? Success stories very welcome!
