Is It Normal Medical Procedure To Raise Iron Levels In Fibroid Related Iron Deficiency Anemia ?
I have fibroid related iron deficiency anemia. I am being treated with Feraheme due to a needed bone surgery. My levels have risen to 11 hemoglobin count in 2 weeks of treatment. Is this a normal medical route to raise iron levels? I am 47 with a bad mentstrual cycle history.
