Cannot take any iron supplements

Hello, I am a 40’ish year old female, it has been a while that I have been diagnosed with anemia, specially very low Ferritin. My Dr. Advised me to go on iron supplements. I have had tried at least 6 different kinds.

I also have to mention that, I do have rosacea and taking any of these supplements, after a week or two, gives me a Severe painful flushing and my face gets full of small bumps, which hurts me very much physically and mentally, to see my skin in this condition, but when I stop taking the pills, my skin feels so much better and The burning sensation stops.

This happens every time, being on iron supplements. I am loosing all my hair and I feel very tired and my body hurts all the time. I am trying to have the best organic diet possible but nothing is helping. I don’t want to give up, I don’t think any dr. Will understand or even try to help.

This is why I decided to contact you and ask to see how can I increase my Iron naturally, as I mentioned my diet and supplements I am taking are very good. You might be able to recommend something to help my anemia, without flaring up my Rosacea. Looking forward hearing from you.

Best regard,
