I keep dealing with severe anemia and even with intravenous iron it goes to my organs. I think the body hides the iron from opportunistic infections and pathogens that want to feed on it.

It is a catch 22, I need iron to live but so do they and the body is helping and hurting me.

Anyone else in this boat?

This should have gone in medical questions. My bad. If a mod wants to move it.

I'll move it for you.

What other symptoms do you have?
