Iron infusion in the UK and prices

[notsureaboutyou]

If you have recently had an iron infusion in the UK and you paid for it privately would you mind sharing where you had it and how much it cost?

I live in london and prices are around £800.

I checked a clinic in Northern Ireland and the price is only £300.

so I’m at thinking if there are prices other places in the uk perhaps I could travel if it worked out cheaper.

also did you feel better quickly?

my doctor wont help and I am exhausted and run down all the time.

I had an iron infusion at the Oxford Iron Clinic two weeks ago. Mine was done under my work BUPA health insurance and cost me just £100 for my excess. If paying privately, the cost is £220 for the initial consultation then £570 for the actual infusion, so practically the same as London prices.

It’s still early days as the full effects aren’t seen for 4-6 weeks, but I already feel so much better. My utter exhaustion has almost gone, I’m nowhere near as breathless as I was and my mood is hugely improved.

I’ve been recommended to start taking iron tablets again from today but only one tablet three times a week so hopefully the awful digestive issues I usually get with oral iron won’t happen on such a low dose.

Glad to hear it has worked quickly for you :)

I am so fed up of being tired all the time I don’t feel like myself because of it
