Re: Swelling?

I've been taking iron for about a week now along with diuretic (mild) and my swelling is almost completely gone. How have you been feeling lately? I am feeling much better but every once in a while I get light headed and feel a little dazed. Also, at night I have some tightness in my chest but I don't know if that is allergies or plain ole anxiety of this whole thing. I had 2 EKG's that were normal and no history of any heart related conditions and my bp is normal so I am hoping it is just allergies/wheezing or anxiety or I have even read that when you have the anemia the heart does work harder so maybe that is what I am feeling.

I can't believe how bad a person can feel with low iron! I don't wish it on anyone.
