  • Iron overdose

    Anyone know if this is possible? I just realized the vitamins i am takin have iron in them because they are prenatal vitamins.

    today i felt crummy and then an hour after takin the vitamins I threw up and was shakin like crazy but i felt hot and sweaty and really tired and awful.

    it is day 3 of clean induction so maybe its iinduction flu but i dunno i just think it might have something to do with takn vitamins with iron.. i just noticed today there is iron in them.

    I get really really nauseous if i don't eat enough with my multivitamin..i mean REALLY nauseous...I break out in a sweat and feel like i'm going to throw up (i haven't thankfully), so i always make sure I have a full breakfast/meal just before I have it.

    Iron overdoes does not happen right away, it's from iron building up in liver and kidneys over time from what this artcle says. Here is the info (I think it's highly unlikely you have iron overdose).
