Bummer that you have a hard-to-treat iron deficiency. Have you talked to your medical team about this? Gynecologist and primary care doc? Between your doctors and PLwIBS (people living with IBS), there ought to be some choices they all can suggest that fit your needs. Here's hoping that our readers will chime in with the ideas you seek. Kind regards, Kim, moderator I'm not recommending this product to you, just sharing an FYI. A while back, I purchased Geritol as a possible tonic for my needs. It was formulated for old people who had "iron-poor blood," and it also contains B vitamins. Taken off the market for a while after making outrageous health claims, it's now marketed as a multi-vitamin and iron supplement. I decided not to take it though. I am not iron-deficient, so an iron supplement would only create a problem for me that didn't exist previously: too much iron in the blood! Turns out though, pregnant women have been known to take Geritol because it is rich in B vitamins. I'm offering it up as something for you to research and run by your medical team/experts. --Kim, moderator
