A member asked:
Is it possible that i feel better after only one day of taking an iron supplement?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Maybe: A one-day turnaround seems pretty quick. But it also feels good to know what your diagnosis is (anemia), and to be working towards feeling better by taking iron if that's what you need. Lot of improvement can come from positive expectation also -- work with it! and work with your doctors too. Good luck.
