Is it okey for me to start taking iron without doctors advice?
Hello ((((Sweetums))))), I am having so much trouble with feeling so tired all the time....I just don't have any energy anymore......When I first had surgery I didn't have energy but I would push myself and somehow get thru the day...Now I just don't have the energy to push myself to do anything.....My surgeon has not done any blood work and I am 5 and 1/2 months post......Someone emailed me the other day and told me I should not wait on the doctor to take the iron......She said that was what caused her and her husband to be so tired and she started to feel better right away after taking it.,....I can't find that email now to ask her about it so could anyone taking iron tell me the best to take and if it would be harmful to me to take iron without doctors advice.....I am just sooooo tired all the time and need some energy......I have a doctors appointment on th 20th but don't think I can keep feeling this tired till then.......I take 2 flintstones a day and 2 caltrate's....Please let me know which are the best to buy....My hubby is going to town today so he can get them for me.....I couldn't find anything on iron in the library...Thanks a million and God Bless!!!!!
