Symptoms
- My ferritin is 33. I suffer from hair loss and do not tolerate iron supplements. I have been eating more red meat and liver for the last 6 months, but my ferritin does not seem to budge.
- Muscle weakness, tension and dizziness are my main symptoms. Do you have suggestions for these?
- On my last labs, my iron was 153, in range; ferritin low at 12. I am experiencing hair loss and would like to know what I can do to help bring ferritin levels up without being at risk of increasing iron. I’m taking LDN and it hasn’t helped with it.
- I'm taking selenium 200mcg for TPO and methyl B vitamins for MTHFR. At 10mg of B6 per day my results were elevated. I want to have more energy and less headache pressure on my left temple and behind eyes. Could these supplements cause my symptoms?
- Have you ever come across anyone who had experienced sharp pangs in their thyroid when taking calcium supplements?
- Is a low ferritin level of 12 a cause on its own for extreme debilitating fatigue and no energy? Or, if you’re having that amount of extreme fatigue, is it likely something else in addition?
- Any thoughts on what vitamin I’m lacking that might cause angular cheilitis?
- I bruise easily and have been taking vitamin C, but it isn’t working. Is there anything else that will help?
- What can cause neuropathies?
- What are your suggestions related to malabsorption problems?
- Every time I take selenium, my thyroid becomes enlarged. Could I be low on iodine and that’s the reason for the selenium causing problems?
