Asking For Self, Female, 37 Years old, uk

Low ferritin k lie medicine le rahe thi 3 months se 1st month 70mg elemental iron phr maine dose barha k 120mg elemental iron karde. Mere tabiat on and off bht kharab rahe k jab se iron start ke thi tab se. Ab mujhe shak hai k shayed iron oxidation hogae hai to maine iron rok de hai filhal, 10 days hogay hain stop kiyay hoay symptoms are getting better mager pori tarhan sahi nahi horahay. 3 months back ferritin was 16 aur latest 73 hai. Thank you (its not iron load, i am taking about iron oxidation) plus mere pelvic me pain start hogaya tha gp ne saray test karlie hain swabs bhi sab negative atay hain mager dipstick still positive ati hai uti wali

iron oxidation is a normal part of iron utilization that doesn't cause any severe symptoms... iron should be taken with food and water.. don't take it on an empty stomach. if ferritin is improved then iron can be stopped but hb should be checked also if it is improving or not .
UTI ka proper treatment len.. urine culture krwayen

I stopped iron 14 days back some of symptoms haves eased like very bad anxiety, body weakness (as if body is empty) loss of appetite, breathlessness even when taking one stair case, low bp, elevated heart rate, also palpitations at times, can see on and off blackish/ dark brownish at corners of nail beds outer corner even after stopping iron. My Full iron panel came normal. I have mild anxiety now, i can eat, breathlessness is still lingering, also heart palpitations are less. My bp was around 90above and below was in 60’s for around 2 weeks still below is in 60’s. I also felt dizzy brain fog both are less now. Also weird sensations in body on and off.

I really don’t want to jump into consultation as i did one with a haematologist 4 days back and he was so ignorant said even ferritin is nothing and you don’t have to worry about it. I would really consult if some one understands my situation

currently what you are doing is a consultation too.. but with this method there is no proper pattern or details that are needed... it's totally your choice if you want a consultation but being a doctor it is hard for me to give opinion this way
