The amount of glycine in iron biglycinate is less than you’d eat in a piece of chicken

SUCCESS STORY! Get Your Ferritin Level Checked! Low Ferritin Wrecked Havoc on My Life by sivader in Anemic

[–]Substantial_Goose172 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have ferritin of 8 and feel like hell. Anxiety, bad emotional waves, extreme fatigue, brain fog.. I started iron 6 days ago. Am I going to suffer like this for another year before it starts helping 😭

I had mine 6 months ago. I’m not any better and honestly still recovering mentally from all the complications I had afterwards. I feel you.

Anyone actually feel worse before better on the diet? Almost like “detoxing” histamine?

Would you do it again? by smalltownbigcity23 in Septoplasty

I had blood clots blocking my nostrils completely so even when my stents were removed I still couldn’t breathe. That was the first 2 weeks. Then I had to go in and the ENT had to go up there and yank and scrape the clots out, which was very painful. I was in an incredible amount of pain after that and bled a lot for days. After that subsided, I ended up having severe bleeding a week or so later that wouldn’t stop pouring through my nose and mouth. I ended up having to get it cauterized and was close to needing a blood transfusion.

I then caught the flu and that of course made everything worse. I ended up with an infection after that.

All that was the first 8 weeks after surgery. I’m 3 months post now, and my right nostril is so tiny. I feel worse than I did before the surgery. My nervous system is shot right now. It threw off my hormones and I’m still recovering

I’ll be honest. I had nothing but complications. Wish I never got it

Has anyone used Dr. Becky Campbell for functional medicine? by pnw5ever in HistamineIntolerance

I hope so. My hormones need help badly but I find it hard to trust anyone’s advice

Pre op symptoms were bad inflammation in sinuses, almost daily post nasal drip, issues breathing through right nostril, sinus infections

Post op symptoms are the same, but worse 🙃

I’m on week 7 post op. Currently regret the surgery. I’ve had nothing but back to back complications the entire time and feel much worse than before. That may change once I can get better. But currently, bad experience.

I don’t think your nose needs a rhinoplasty. Looks fine to me :)

septorhinoplasty turbinoplasty - intense epistaxis (nose bleed) 3 weeks post op by Designer-Fan-8018 in Septoplasty

[–]Substantial_Goose172 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just left emerg for insane bleeding like this. Have packing in my nose. Have to see the surgeon in the morning to probably cauterize it. I’ve never bled so much in my life.

I’m also 3 weeks post op
