You know, I'd heard that about Vitamin C and cast iron, and didn't think about it until you mentioned it, Rachel!Suzie, I'm sorry you're having the frustration of feeling like you're not being heard, in addition to the physical problems. I can handle the physical stuff, but when I feel the medicals aren't listening to me is when I melt down. It's my body, by golly, and if I know there's something wrong, there's something wrong.
Pinky, my sis had gastric bypass and has some absorption issues, mostly well managed but she does have to supplement some. Has anyone talked to you about taking vitamin C with your iron or iron rich meals? Last I'd heard, it helps the absorption rate of the iron, as that's one of the things it's hard for the body to pull out of food or supplements. I've also heard cooking in cast iron helps....not sure if that's an old wive's tale or not.![]()
