| I believe anemia is AF's twin sister... Yesterday (13th), I suddenly passed out in the middle of work, and was unconscious. I was rushed to the hospital and it was there that they noticed blood.
Once again, anemia was the cause of a miscarriage, even though I was super careful and have taken an iron test everyday to make sure my iron was high enough...
I sure hope this isn't continuous.
I'm back here again with you all!!

| Sorry to hear that
Have you tried making sure you get enough vitamin c aswell, it can help the uptake of iron into the body.
Hope you get your bfp soon and a sticky bean  | | | | Status: Offline

| I had blood transfusions until just a few years ago. And now I'm doing the shots. It's getting slowly better.
The doctors just said my iron is just too unstable and could drop at any point. | | | | Status: Offline
