Which brand of Iron do you use?
I need to add iron to my vitamin regimen and I cannot find the one my surgeon recommended anywhere. I have a call into their office to see if they have additional suggestions, but I doubt i will hear back today. I was curious which brands of iron (and where you get them) are used by folks here.
Thanks!

This is what I'm using at the moment. I have iron issues so I'm currently taking 125mg a day in hopes of improving my iron numbers.

I use Bariatric Advantage Iron, 60. Got if from Amazon.com, since I live in a rural area, and having it come to the door is great. It is a chewable, lemon-lime flavor that is nice. Also read your other post from this evening, and I am sorry for your woes. A lot of prayers have gone up for you and your family, have faith and let go, let God. Bless you.
