Anyone having troubles with finding an Iron supplement?

I am having SUCH trouble with IRON! I couldn't find a liquid of a chewable ... so I have just the regular tablets ... very small in size ... so I crush them ... and I CAN NO LONGER stomach the taste of them! It's like literally drinking a piece of METAL ... YUCK!

I have emailed my doc office and have yet to hear back ...

If anyone has any kind of suggestion ... I welcome them!

thanks a bunch!

    I went on Amazon today and ordered Viridian 100% Organic Liquid Iron - 200ml.

    Its a little expensive but I will only take the liquid until I can get tablets down after 3 months.

    I was told I could swallow any pill smaller than a MM, no need to crush. So I have using the same ferrous sulfate since I was pre-op.
