    oh my gosh. it was horrible. as a matter of fact, her bloodwork is all good now and she is still extremely fatigued. infusions were about 8 months ago. now she has headaches every day. we dont really think it has anything to do with her Iron or surgery now, we just dont have a clue what is causing all this.

    Just curious.. was your sister on Multivitamin with iron after surgery? I guess I'm just wondering if I should start some iron now.

    I do not iknow if she was. I think so, but just dont remember. YOU need to get on them now if you are not already!!!!

    I get mine from a a company that has prescription B12 nose spray, and it is done weekly. They give you a multi Vitamin, calcium/D Vitamins with it. It costs $25 a month and they are excellent vitamins. You can get pills or chewable. You can google Nascobal. That is the nose spray.

    I started my vitamin regimen before I even had surgery.
