Hi all,
Im 34 weeks and had a consultant appointment today. She commented on my iron levels being too low at 97. I’ve been on ferrous fumarate for about a month and I’ve had my bloods retested today to see if there has been an improvement. If not I’ll need an infusion but the doc made a comment about ferrous fumarate not being very effective. She’s switched me to sulphate. I just wondered if anyone managed to get their levels up within a month of taking ff? I am desperate for something to make me feel better. The fatigue and breathlessness have been awful. Even holding a phone is making me tired and I’ve been signed off work and advised plenty of rest. TIA.
