For me the biggest thing and the hardest thing for me and when I knew something was wrong was when I couldn’t even have a conversation without getting winded .
get your iron storage checked. get your FERRITIN LEVEL.
Thank you for talking about this👏 I have an iron deficiency I have anemia. As I got older I started being more serious about taking vitamins more. I get horrible headaches from stress it's not fun also I cut back on sugar it seems to be a bit better. I get headaches from not eating enough. You are right these are all not excuses at all it's health and I wish people would take it serious and not say "oh you are making excuses" or it"s all in your head because it is not, it is serious and it explains a lot.
❤️ I swear my boyfriend ROLLED HIS EYES when I said that I'm cold. 😂😂 Can you imagine? Now I'm just like "you feeling guilty now, huh?" 😂 I agree, there are a lot of explanations for it and I didn't make excuses either, I just never saw it as an iron deficiency. :)
Now u better.?
I have spent over 20yrs insisting something was wrong with me. Today after all these years I was just diagnosed with iron & vitamin d deficiency. So I looked it up.And I have experienced 98% of the symptoms for both deficiencies.
Thank you! It’s 4 years later, but I checked your channel, and the content is very different, so I appreciate your taking the time to make this video.
Thanks for making this video. I’m dealing with anemia really bad right now. I didn’t take it seriously and I’ve been eating a bad diet and I was taking ibuprofen, which I read online is not a good idea. You can actually cause anemia if you take it too often. I’m trying to recover and take care of myself now, I really appreciate your video.
I’m 25 and have it I have to start taking care of myself
My haemoglobin was normal but iron too low and after long time I found the answer cause all doctor told me I have anxiety 😟 the last doctor he check my iron level and he says your iron low but your haemoglobin fine so after he say I don’t think this from iron I said inside myself wtf I have too low iron
I ignore doctor I start to taking iron supplements and I stop drink caffeine or any type of tea to ruse my iron
My symptoms:
Fatigue -dizziness-lightheaded-brain fog- weak mental-heart racing fast and slow - cold hand and feet-panic attack
After I taking iron for 2 week my symptoms improvement 30%
It's cause you can have iron deficiency without anemia
Good for you! It's scary how many doctors don't truly understand iron deficiency.
I had MANY doctors tell me I couldn't possibly be iron deficient because my Hgb was ok (that's false, per medical literature).
By the time someone finally did iron studies for me, I'd spent YEARS sometimes unable up drive, stand, walk up a few steps, etc.
I've now had 2 courses of 6 iron Infusions, and we're trying to address the reasons for the deficiency. And, after 9 years (8 misdiagnosed and not diagnosed), I'm finally starting to get my life back.
@@llkg9 how r u doing now what r the test I have been through?
@@llkg9 soo sorry I’m currently going through same. 1 year of misdiagnosis. They always told me my hb is fine so it’s nothing wrong. They all told me it was in my head. I met this dr who said he saw that my rbc were relatively small and he ordered for an iron stories and I found my iron was low
@@llkg9 Try eating beef meat on daily basis and consume more lemons and oranges,you will feel great in a matter of days
Did you have exsessive thirst or a burning feeling in your mouth? I have very low iron and have that symptom aswell. The weight gain and fatigue was the worst symptom for me.
iron bisglycinate is more easily absorbable and doesnt cause as much constipation
I have struggle a lot with anemia as well, I think a lot of women are very susceptible because of the loss of blood during the menstrual cycle, there are a lot of women who become iron deficient at some point or another.
Yes! And given the fact it has so many symptoms they rarely think about anemia :(
I'm having chest pains and nerve pain since 2 months. I was absolutely fine and when one day started having chest pain... It scares me a lot... I have done my ECG echocardiogram endoscopy and what not... Doctor said my heart was fine.... All the doctors are saying that I have in society and anxiety is causing me e these weird pains all over my body and specially my chest pain.. somewhat I was not ready to believe them... I I'm having extremely dry lips... It's sometimes even bleed when the skin comes off, kind of dry skin. And people tell me that I looked very unwell... I got my vitamin test done.... And my vitamin d level is 12.... Dr never asked me for a bit test but can my chest pain and other pain all around my body and specially my wrist and my feet can be a sign of vitamin d deficiency... Can vitamin d deficiency at a level of 12 be so severe
Also I have had breathing issues now a days... Strange tightness in the body. ... Lump in the throat feeling... And upset stomach... And I'm also having lump in the throat feeling.. can dis be due to vit d or calcium deficiency or iron or potassium bdeficiency? I have done my B12 test also which are normal.... Last month I had my ovarian cyst surgery for which my CBC was done but it was also normal... For now I have sent my samples for iron testing
I have everything you’re dealing with.. lump in throat feeling, chest pain and have been to the hospital and doctor so many times and all of my tests come back normal. I also get shortness of breath..So I came to conclusion that I might have an iron deficiency because my period has been so irregular
@@Shortgirllove Same here I have everything she's talking about
@@tiffanyhope3101 It is Multiple Sclerosis
Thank youuuu so much for this I can’t explain how helpful this is ❤️❤️ I’ve got 9/10 symptoms I’ve got a blood test next week I only contacting the doctor when it became servere and hopefully I recover and how’s your recovery journey going ?
Hw r uh
Yes I've got thin hair and am breathless with rapid heart beat , cold all the time and tired all the time. I have dry lips too but that might be lip balm dependency. I've been like this for nearly 30 yrs. I drink a lot of tea which hinders iron absorption.
I'm right there with you on this...my daughter too...It's crazy but dry cereal has saved us...
Really? Wow I never heard of this! Might need to check it out! :)
im currently going through this now. the dr asked if i was tired and i said yeah… but life is tiring overall. im working full time, my boyfriend has colon cancer and has a surgery planned, my father had two strokes, so like you said other factors causing the irregular heartbeats and fatigue (my symptoms). im referred for iron infusions and im hoping with supplementation and eating a higher protein diet i will beat this.
i'm so sorry to hear this! wishing nothing but the best for you and your family
So when you get your iron levels up does the weight come back off?
I am starting my journey at 56 years old.
wow this was a really helpful video. I recently have been struggling with irregular heartbeat and getting out of breath when not doing much. I’ve been assuming the worse lol but maybe it’s just an iron deficiency! I’m a long time vegan so who knows. either way I’ll be getting it checked. thanks for info ☺️
I hope you figure it out soon! :) I've been vegetarian for 3 years now so that might be the cause too :D
Did u find out ?
Same, girl. I have been a Vegan for 15 years and have a heavy period. I have similar symptoms. I am about to start supplementing iron again.
Yes! I just found out I have iron deficiency. I've been dealing with tachycardia and shortness of breath really bad for 8 months. I'm hoping my iron supplements will start making the symptoms better soon!
@@haileyanderson7870 hey how r u doing now .... Same with me
I'm a human pin cushion always in hospital my levels are 3.1 as high as7.2 should be15 beets are supposed to be good for veggies dark leafy veg
Iron combine with folic b12 and c is good idea
Can it be, that you're german or somehow not native in English? Your Syntax sometimes is really aligned to German Syntax.
Howsoever, interesting video :). Suffer from the same. I'm happy you didn't experience heart problems. I was like 30 times in ER, they suspected heart attacks, tumors and alot of other stuff. And I couldn't gain muscles anymore, even though I worked out 4-6 times per week, my performance went down to when I started lifting weights. One day I got unconscious in the gym, because my blood couldn't support my body with enough oxygen anymore. That was a weird experience, for which I broke my arm, cause I got unconscious in a super bad position while working out with weights. That was a few days ago.
I hope this will be better soon. I'm a total mess these days.
Holland & Barratt do Gentle iron supplements by Solgar... I literally couldn't stomach the other pills but these are great.
I've been using a liquid iron supplement.The liquid is very gentle to my stomach,no cramps at all.
Which brand please ? @@deniseparker3614
Hi. I what levels did you get back to normal.
what foundation do you use? your skin looks amazing
been struggling with this for some years now.(unknowingly) the pills f*ck up my stomach, and by this point im so done. but my levels have gotten up to the point i cant get an infusion. :( its just pills after pills, trying to find a supplement that doesnt hurt as much. or make me vomit. im bascially unable to work due to this, but i try to some hours,
I take a liquid iron Supplement called Spartone. It is honestly the best. It has no side effects and is highly absorbable.
One of the best things is to start cooking all your food in an iron skillet... It can make a huge difference...
O I also been experiencing nausea every now and then and nope I'm not pregnant
Anyone tried the lucky iron fish/leaf?
I'm experiencing , cold hands feet, always feeling cold, . Random short headaches, odd dizzy spells that comes and goes, ringing in my ear every couple months , , my cut and bruises take a long time to heal, and I'm prone to catching virus constantly, been doctors, they took blood test, but it's been a week and haven't heard from them, so I'm assuming my system are stress relatied, , . However I haven't gained weight I have lost weught, I'm assuming i lost weight , by working, a full time job and going into a gluten free diet. 🤔
Hi
How do you feel right now?
I’m having those same issues! Even my dog is sick! I assumed I had a virus, but recently experienced violent and disturbing behavior from my grown son, and I wonder if it’s stress related, too. I also am fighting Lyme infections. Not sure.
On vegan diet for some time, I experienced: fatigue, muscle weakness, foggy brain (dizziness, slurred speach), striated nails and thin hair. Lab report showed anemia (B12 OK, Hemaglobin OK, but low MCHC of 31.2 < 33). Tea, coffee, leaky gut and insufficient beans & legumes in diet. Not going to take any iron pills.
What was your iron level at mine was at 13 after 5 months of taking iron it’s now at 15 umol how long did you have to take iron to get back to normal
restless legs also
I went gluten-free I feel my iron levels is getting better
i might have to do that as well!! :)
Have you tried iron infusions?
I guess you had 10, dang it I was wrong! I'm sorry you have to deal with this ☹️
it's okay! :) I'm slowly getting better but the pills are still a pain in the ass :/
I'm having all major of these symptoms but the doctor said my blood work is fine help!!!! But they won't test me for iron.
@@Sjj827 Yes also heart palpitations, head pressure ,balance problem
@@Skybluewindcool I have these symptoms too. Did you figure out what it was?
@@angelb4946 Yes. Insulin Resistance + Multiple Sclerosis
Is weight loss iron symptom?
Yes, weight loss is a symptom of iron deficiency.

I shall do this until I'm at optimal levels again, I was slowly dying.
I’m very very anemic rn I have all those symptoms and I’m soooo weak sometimes, terrible
did you at all bruise easily? because that’s been one of my symptoms
@@lizmontgomery4277 bruising is a sign of internal bleeding or blood disorders other than anemia
@@lizmontgomery4277 you can bruise from that yes, but it could be low vit c, low vit D3, leukemia, etc.
I was slowly dying… yes I feel the same…
