When did everyone...

start to feel better after taking there medications, etc? It has only been a few days but I still feel like something the dog dragged in! Yes, I am an impatient person. but I just want the annoying lightheaded/dizziness, fatigue to go away!

Re: When did everyone...

depends what you are taking, how well you absorb it and how ill you are in the first place. i think i can take up to a ear to get well, but you could start feeling better sooner.

Re: When did everyone...

help wanted said it in a nutshell.

Basically i highly doubt anybody out there is going to feel any improvement within a few days.

In my case i was on some form or other of iron supplement for a year and three months and felt no better. Then i moved to getting iron injected straight into my muscle with a needle and after the fourth injection (one month later) i began to feel signs of more energy, particularly in the mornings.

Re: When did everyone...

I was diagnosed a year ago, had tons of test (and even a surgery) and have taken iron pills. I still feel horrible and I believe the fatigue is getting worse.

My PCP told me I should see an increase with the oral meds within 3 months. It never worked.

So now I'm scheduled to see a hematologist on Thursday.

Good luck!
Jo

Re: When did everyone...

Thanks guys...sounds like its gonna be a while I'm just sooo sick of feeling tired, dizzy and lightheaded when I stand up! I have had these symptoms for years, so I assume it's going to take a while for me to get back to "normal"....*SIGH*
