I need to find a way to restore my Iron levels. I was told I was anemic years ago after my knee replacement in 2003. I have had an endoscopy and a colonscopy just to see if I had internal bleeding. Now it is 2010 and my blood levels are still low. I crave Ice at certain times and I am ALWAYS Cold.... I really need to find a way to up these levels. I have taken Iron supplements but find they make my consitpated even if I take a stool softner. I went to a specialist and he wanted me to take Iron with fosforate. "spelling" I'm getting really tired of not being able to still to something that I really works and I can feel the differance. I am an African-American and most of my family can tell how pale I am over the years. I really want to get this condition under control. I take I believe enough Vitamin C 1000mg everyday. I just need something that is not going to constipate me.
