    Hey Kerry,
    New time watcher - your videos are lovely and informative!
    I'm currently suffering with extreme anxiety/breathlessness and palpitations - wondering if you had any of that when your folate/iron was low? Currently waiting on blood test results...
    I was diagnosed with a double whammy of SIBO & H.pylori a month ago, so took some medication and am now on a low-FODMAP diet to combat it. Defo think there are some links here, i hope you feel better soon!
    Any tips/advice would be fab ❤

      Hi Annie, I know it's been 1 year since your comment, but I wanted to tell you that I had similar symptoms when my hemoglobin is around 7 and my ferritin is lower than 3. Heart palpitations, dizziness, blurry vision, hair loss, cold hands and feet, insomnia, bowel irregularities and even limb numbness. I hope you are feeling better these days.

    Great Video. I did have 2 Iron infusions myself and it is absolutely normal to feel flue like afterwards, I did for 2-3 days, just very tired. All that Iron is first stored in the liver where its then slowly incorporated into red blood cells, so it can take up to a month to get the great effects,. Overall I am so glad I did it. I also had a B12 injection with it, for anyone vegetarian, that is also important. I do have a combined B vitamin supplement I am taking from now and then, so Folate is not getting too low. I used to struggle with belly aches and bloating taking iron supplements, but learned that some work better than others, I am currently taking gyno-tardyferon and I do not have any side effects with it. Keep in mind its high dose, 80mg a tablet :) I hope this could help someone

    I think you can get an IV of B vitamins including folate. I’m really nervous about doing an infusion as I hear it’s very hard on the body and you can gain weight. Let me know if you gained any weight or got puffy after?

    • @carolinelaronda4523
      @carolinelaronda4523 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

      I can answer this because I had an infusion about seven months ago, and the reason why you gain weight is because they plummet your leptin levels, which is a hormone that tells you that your satiated or full after you eat I was already gaining weight from being anemic, but the infusion dropped my leptin levels to a two which is extremely low and I gained even more weight. It was horrible and the infusion caused more problems than it was worth- three weeks later my ferritin already dropped back down to a 16 which is just a few points away from being clinically anemic, so it was absolutely not worth, the weight gain, and the major fatigue that I felt after getting it -it was useless. my hemoglobin didn’t even raise. I did my own B12 injections with methylcobalamine at home and it was only after that that my hemoglobin jumped a lil bit so I would say don’t do the infusions. There might be different manufacturers or brands where it is a more pleasant experience, but this was mine and it was horrible and I don’t recommend it. my anemia is largely brought on by extremely heavy. So at this point since I’ve tried everything including high-dose, iron tablets, I will be looking into endometrial abrasion to stop my periods or should I say my uterine lining from shedding and perpetuating the anemia through monthly blood loss.

  • @jeremystout7873
    @jeremystout7873 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Sounds like Hypophosphatamia (HPP). Iron infusions, especially ones using injectafer brand iron can cause this issue of constantly low phosphorus. It can last two years and be a horrible issue to deal with.

    More likely your problem with absorption of your vitamins and minerals from foods is that you have low stomach acid
    You can do either apple cider vinegar or HCL WITH PEPSIN
    Please do a research
    Hope this helps!

      @@SkinnyLegend916 I didn't feel sick but I did feel different and not necessarily better. I had pain on my left side kidney area that I never had before the infusion and my doctor dismissed it. They said it wasn't related. My levels normalized eventually and after one very heavy period dropped on the lower side but hemoglobin is still in normal low range. But my ferratin went way down. Overall I feel better but I picked up weight also. I think due to my better appetite now that I am no longer anemic. So keep all in mind. If you can avoid an infusion I would. I was bleeding way too heavy so had no choice at the time. Hope this helps
