← Return to Iron deficiency anemia without an apparent cause

Hello, I wanted to share my story and hopefully get some insights here. My iron numbers have hovered just barely in normal range for years, then suddenly started dipping and I very quickly ended up severely anemic. I had 5 iron infusions and my numbers came up beautifully. I felt great for about 2 weeks, then the symptoms started coming back. My last hemoglobin showed mild anemia. I've been cleared of having cancer and no internal bleeds. I've always had trouble absorbing iron and have been mildly anemic most of my life. Any thoughts on what to do from here?

I am having the exact same issue. I’m going to see another doctor next week to get some more insight, and if I learn anything new I’ll let you know.
