Could it really be that simple, an iron deficiency the cause of all my problems...?

[QUOTE="Vince Carter, post: 146704, member: 2657"] When I've aggressively tried to raise my iron and I talk really only about Ferritin, which has been subterraneanan in the single digits, nothing good, or bad, came of my trying to raise it. When i've managed to get Ferritin in to the 30s or 40s, still very low by most standards, I wasn't doing better in any way. Though I've had a long history or stomach and gut issues that probably led to malabsorption of minerals like iron. Then I've been forced in to this ridiculous phlebotomy cycle so I get griped at about my ferritin and iron tests, so I take iron, my HGB/HCT (seemingly) are spurred because of using an iron product like "blood builder", forced back to the blood bank and it starts all over again. It's a vicious cycle that has been discussed with my clinic but they still force the phlebotomy on me. Start taking some iron and see how you do, I recommend this ferrous sulfate 325mg, add 1-2g of Vitamin-C, and consider some L-Lysine, both are purported to assist in absorption of iron. [/QUOTE]
