I am anemic, which iron is best

I've been taking carbonyl iron as recommended by my wls surgeon. 50 mg per day elemental. Now my PCP has recommended that I switch to Nu-Iron, which is a polysaccharide form of iron. Can anyone tell me which is better. My ferritin level is 6 and that makes me very anemic.
