I'm on iron tablets for iron deficiency. Had them last year for 3 months seemingly no issues at all. This time round I'm really struggling with them. I'm getting bad stomach cramps and bouts of diarrhea. Yesterday I felt terrible so didn't take one last night or this morning. Had a BM this evening and it's not been diarrhea no stomach cramps and the BM wasn't black which is strange as missing 2 tablets it shouldn't be entirely out of my system. I'm just wondering is there any point in ringing the doctor I'm on ferrous sulfate x2 daily but unsure if there's an alternative?
