I've been taking ferrous sulphate 65mg 3 x day since first part of Feb. My HGB had dropped to 9, now back up to 12.
My doctor recommened I now decrease to 1 or 2 per day and of course they want colonoscopy and endoscopy . Did your doctor atart you on iron supplements?

Yes I started on supplements on Friday (150mg Feramax) but now have to stop for 5 days as I have a colonoscopy and endoscopy scheduled. I hope they don’t find anything. If it weren’t for the low iron there would be no reason the get the scopes done as I have no other symptoms.
