Re: No rant JUST the facts...
I'm so sorry that you are having low iron issues. I remember when I had this issue I was able to resolve it by taking over the counter iron supplements. It turned out I had a diseased (not cancer) uterus that was causing the problem. Taking the supplement did finally give me some energy back so it was worth the constipation that taking them causes. However, I'd want to determine WHY you have low iron? Do they know? Is this common?
Good luck to you. I totally understand the "zzzz" after your name!
Take Care,
Brenda
