Hi all,
please can someone help me understand what's going on here.
am now 28wks pg with no.3. last blood tests showed my ferritin levels dropped from 46 in may to 13 two weeks ago. apparently hb levels still 11 (?!!). and so my dr says am not anaemic, it's only that my iron stores are low so have therefore been prescribed iron tabs (2x200g) Ferrous Sulphate to bring back up.
am really frustrated/annoyed though I am feeling SO RUBBISH. Heart palpitations; dry itchy scalp; SO SO tired can hardly stand let alone do anything for older two (4&2yrsl breathlessness; and did i mention TIRED?!!!
my gp always makes me feel like my symtoms are in my head. IS IT?!!?!
also have SPD durr.
sorry it's a rant but can someone tell me if i'm making it up??
