[QUOTE="nencmeister, post: 238860, member: 41388"] I crashed my ferritin badly.. I gave blood too frequently and it was at 1. I felt like crap, all of the low ferritin symptoms. Doc told me to stop donating, and get on 350MG Iron + Vitamin C. I went out and got tons of iron supps. The first and second day... I felt amazing. Tons of energy, tons of dopamine, just perfect. The first day I probably consumed about 350MG of Iron + Vitamin C, now I am consuming less, about 130MG + Vitamin C. Well, exactly 130MG + Vitamin C, and I do not feel as good. I am worried that I was taking too much iron, my stools now are completely black. Taking 130MG a day, I feel like I did before I started taking iron. Shortness of breath going up the stairs, mind fog, I can feel no dopamine lol. Should I keep taking 350MG + vitamin C a day for a couple of months to replenish my ferritin? I did feel great, but I'm just worried I would be overdoing it. Has anyone been in this boat? Thanks in advance My levels if anyone is interested RED BLOOD CELL COUNT 6.00 H Reference Range: 4.20-5.80 Million/uL HEMOGLOBIN 14.9 Reference Range: 13.2-17.1 g/dL HEMATOCRIT 46.8 Reference Range: 38.5-50.0 % MCV 78.0 L Reference Range: 80.0-100.0 fL MCH 24.8 L Reference Range: 27.0-33.0 pg MCHC 31.8 L Reference Range: 32.0-36.0 g/dL RDW 15.9 H Reference Range: 11.0-15.0 % PLATELET COUNT 214 Reference Range: 140-400 Thousand/uL MPV 10.6 Reference Range: 7.5-12.5 fL [/QUOTE]
