Hello All,
This is my first post.
I am glad I found you.
I had heard about clinical trial using
ferritin infusion to bring the ferritin
levels above 200.
Mine is at 81 which is within the normal range.
I live in Greece and the two doctors
would not prescribe ferritin infusion
to be performed in the local hospital
as my ferritin range is normal.
They did however sanction injection.
Which I had 9 to date.
This will probably bring my level
to 120. I will shortly get a second
blood test to check my levels.
To date I have noticed minor releif
but this could be the placebo effct.
Will keep you posted.
If anyone has any info on this subject
please let me know.
Kalamata Kid.
