Did you get him tested?
According to my chiropractor as well as the company that makes it, the vitamins are “bio-available” and your body can actually absorb them.
I’d be skeptical except there’s a noticeable difference in how I feel. And that was after being pretty darn sure it wasn’t going to have any discernible impact. But I was wrong… it’s quite discernible, to the point that I recognize that I forgot to take them because I notice that I feel lousy.
Have you ever talked this over with your medical doctor?
MD ran some tests and couldn’t find a reason for the fainting and basically dismissed it as being in my head.
Again, not sure how I’d make up fainting. I have no idea how to force myself to lose consciousness other than possibly by forcibly holding my breath… which is not remotely what was happening.
Essentially the doctor didn’t find an obvious cause with an obvious treatment so the doctor gave up.

I meant did you speak to him about the fact these vitamins seem to be working.
Shooting angsty teenagers in multiplayer is one of my favorite pastimes. Is your user name the same (assuming I need that)?
Nope.
Yah it’s the same. CoD is my “I dont have to think about what Im doing right now” game of choice. Else usually still SC2 with old college buds. No time to learn anything else.

I find Splatoon 2 relaxing. The mix of splashing paint everywhere and splashing paint on other players is fun.
For all interested (and those not), I took a pregnancy test because my doctor is going to ask anyway, and I am not pregnant. PTL.
I bought some, because they were highly reviewed. They arrived yesterday. Can’t hurt to try, and I was almost out of my multivitamin anyway.
…Which I mostly only take for iron, which this doesn’t have. And that’s fine. Now I need to find an iron supplement that isn’t too hard on the stomach.

Our foster agency gives us small gifts every year, because they get donations from the public to be put toward kids in care and the families who take them in.
And the gift for our family is always a Wal Mart gift card. I finally spent last year’s gift card, just in time to get another. It’s only $25 or $50, not enough to get excited about it, easy to forget about.
It’s been so long ago that I honestly don’t recall. I’ve since moved far enough away that I had to switch doctors.
I hope they help.
I seem to get enough iron in my diet without supplementing it. I eat an egg almost every morning and there are very few days where I don’t eat any spinach or broccoli. And I sometimes cook in cast iron.
Whenever I donate blood they always test for iron and I always have enough to donate anyway.
My chiropractor had suggested doing more cooking in cast iron as a way to pick up extra iron. But I think I mostly get it because I just happen to like a lot of foods that are naturally rich in iron.

I donate blood every 8 weeks, so I need a supplement. Otherwise I likely wouldn’t.

You donate blood more often than I do, so I can see that making a difference.

when I had similar symptoms as you, my doctor didn’t ask me if I was pregnant. Maybe she just assumes I’m old as dirt and that’s impossible.
I cook a lot in cast iron and eat eggs almost daily and I’m old as the hills and I STILL have to supplement iron. But I’m taking a cheap one a day so it’s probably not being absorbed.

I eat the chewable kid’s vitamins before and after blood donation.
