Anemia Takeing 3X The Amonut Of Floradix

I just realized this evening I have been taking 3x the amount of the daily dose of Floradix Iron + B Vitamins. It calls for 10ml Ive been taking 30 ml. I guess I needed it because it hasn't made me sick. I knew I was feeling better with more energy. I had Labs done this morning can't wait to see what my Iron level is. Has anyone every doubles up or tippled up on iron and b vitamins . If so how long did it take to get your iron levels under control? Please note that I did not do this on purpose This is only by accident, good thing I needed it otherwise not so good.

Uhm, ah, no. Many companies make B vitamin mixes with way over the recommended daily amount, so that won't hurt you, but a normal person will feel pukey on that much iron.

Wow.

Of course at one point I was sucking down blackstrap molasses like manna from heaven.

Do let your doctor know that you ODed a bit on the iron before the bloodwork. Too much iron in your system can be dangerous and if he sees very high results with the test it may lead to more testing you don't need if he is not aware of the amount you were taking.

Well I read the dosage a little closer and it actually says 10ml 2 times a day so I really wasn't Overdosing I kind of wish I would have took more because my labs came back abnormal. Will start a new topic for this. In case anyone is searching for severe Anemia.

      Hi Scott, yes I have had symptoms for years and this is the second GI I have seen and he could not believe I have never been tested. He called later today and I am scheduled for an endoscopy. Is there a way to tell how severe my potential celiac is from the results above? What are the chances I will have the biopsy and come back negative and we have to keep searching for a cause?

      I agree christina, there is definitely many contributing factors! I have the pain today, my pelvis, hips and thighs ache! No idea why. But i have been sitting at work for 3 days so im thinking its my back. This disease is very mysterious (and frustrating) but not always to blame for every pain.

      "her stool study showed she had extreme reactions to everything achievement on it long course of microbials to treat that." The wording of this part of the sentence does not make any sense at all. I don't mean to insult you, but is English your first language? This part of the sentence sounds like it was generated by translation software.

      What kind of stool test was done? Can you be more specific? 
    • mishyj
      Perhaps I should also have said that in addition to showing a very high response to gluten, her stool study showed that she had extreme reactions to everything achievement on it long course of microbials to treat that.
