Thank you fellow sleever and LIFESAVER :)

I'm only a week out. Felt incredible day 1-3 and after that just wasn't feeling right, each day got worse. Day 6 was miserable!!!

More liquid didn't help. More sleep didn't help. More Protein didn't help.

THANK YOU to the sleever that posted something that I stored in my memory for some reason... I can't recall who you are or what post but you saved my life. I took an Iron pill last night and woke up feeling amazing again. I took the other half tonight and felt even more improvement! :) Better mood, more energy, and looking at life with hopeful eyes again!

Sweet dreams everyone!! Woohooooo.....

What kind of iron pill did you take? Like what mg? I wasn't told to take iron but I see that people do. My multi has 18mg which is the suggested daily requirement for average people. I am so tired I really wonder if that could help me too. I'm going to try googling how much iron is safe. I see people taking some kind of iron liquid too.

Hi Rebecca, I just ran to check the bottle... 50 mg. Random grocery store brand and it was even expired.. lol. I was out of options and just tried for the sake of trying it. My dr and NUTs never mentioned Iron specifically. I know my body rather well so was comfortable taking it.

Good luck! I hope it helps you too! Fingers crossed for you! (My multi only has 18mg as well).

My other factors that helped the low iron.... It was TOM when I had surgery. Then I've also had.... Ahem.... Liquid bathroom issues (2 days, now stopped) so not keeping good stuff in me. :/
