After my downer last week following 2 low losses I went to my GP as was feeling exhausted and week plus a whole other load of symptoms and thought I might have an underactive thyroid (better loss of 3.4 this week btw!).
Well had results of blood tests today and pleased to report my thyroid is fine but I am very Anaemic so have come away with Iron tablets. I phoned the LL medical team just to see if this might affect my weight loss as I would like to know and be prepared if it does and they just sat on the fence and said it may or may not and will have to see how it goes!
So obviously no matter what, I need to take the tablets and can't wait to start feeling less week and exhausted but wondered if anyone else is on them and 1) did it affect their losses and 2) did they suffer with constipation and 3) how long before they started feeling better.
BTW I don't think that the Anaemia is due to LL, I think much more likely down to women's problems if you know what I mean (sorry guy's!)
Any advice greatfully received! x
