Hello everyone.
I have just had my blood tests back and my iron level is at the low end of the range 34 on a scale of 24-246. Whilst it is in range, and the GP was not concerned, I wonder if anyone has any experience with this, and wonder if an iron supplement might help with my very sore muscles & joints, especially in my legs and general tiredness and feeling rubbish? Also any recommendations for the best 'gentle' supplement which won't cause me to get horribly constipated. I take a good quality multi vitamin (Solgar V2000) & a meno supplement. I already take HRT but the muscle aches and joint pains have become a lot worse - all other tests normal. I'm vegetarian and allergic to fish and shellfish, so can't take some supplements. Thanks for your wisdom!
