I passed!!! But.....

Well I passed my GDT but....severally anemic. So bring on the iron pills (3x a day) and the fiber pills (for the constipation due to all the iron pills!!!)

Edit: Normal Iron levels are 34-44 and mine was at 18. Wasn't a surprise since I was anemic as a child as well as with my first daughter.

Re: I passed!!! But.....

  • I got the same results, lol. There is a brand of iron called "Slow FE" that you can buy at the drugstore, it is 45 mg that is slowly released throughout the day...can you take that? It seems to be working for me, no bad side effects.

  • Yay for passing your GT. Its not good that you are anemic but at least now that you know maybe the iron will give you some more energy! Good luck!
