Hi @kathrynb, welcome. I'm glad that ferric carboxymaltose injection (brand name: Injectafer) is working well for you.

For other interested in more info, see https://www.mayoclinic.org/drugs-supplements/ferric-carboxymaltose-intravenous-route/description/drg-20061271

How often do you get injections?

I usually get infusions about every 6 months. I have a small intestine bleed so I slowly require more fe. All of my tests were done at Mayo.
