[QUOTE="SS67901, post: 171011, member: 40151"] So I have been on TRT for about 3 years. 38 year old Male...was suffering from fatigue/brain fog/high stress. Test was 320 at the outset of this. So I self administered 200 mg Test Cyp every 7 days for about 2 years. I routinely gave blood to keep my HGB around 15... That’s when I got my ferritin tested and it was around 15 iron on the other hand was within range. So I took some internet advice to stop giving blood...and began taking a liquid iron supplement Floradix to get my numbers up. I asked my General Practice doctor if she had any advice to raise my iron and got referred to a hemotologist. Upon seeing the Hematologist my HGB was 17.3 she said that was the primary concern not the iron. They took out 3 pints over the next mon Since then I have found a clinic that does it in office with monthly bloodwork I attached two documents my iron and ferritin is tanked and now my RDW is raising to sky high level. Do I need an iron infusion? Cause obviously I’m not absorbing what I do eat. [/QUOTE]
