I'm no doctor but I recently went through this, had an endoscopy done and they found bleeding in my intestine which was repaired and now my iron etc is coming up. Good luck! Hope you figure it out.

I’m glad your condition is improving! Thanks so much for sharing.

I got a colonoscopy to hunt for my IDA problem and am 82 years old.Polyps were not a problem, but the gastroenterologist told me diverticula may be leaking blood. My hematologist said this was a common problem for people my age. I got one iron infusion and will see the hematologist in November. I attempt to take 32 mg of iron daily.
