I don't know much about the setup in NZ but I understand the structure is very like th English one. Are you able to ask for a second opinion ? Always difficult when you are below a threshold but you can see it yourself. Yes as you have noticed, giving blood will help you. Therapeutic phlebotomy is a recognised treatment for hemochromatosis. There is a good article about ti here <a href="http://womenshealth.about.com/od/commonhealthissues/a/ironoverload.htm" rel="nofollow">http://womenshealth.about.com/od/commonhealthissues/a/ironoverload.htm </a> If you are taking any vitamihn supplements make sure you have a version without iron and keep pushing for help Kath Hi, I’m so sorry you are experiencing difficulties with the medical profession.

We both have MS. My sister has had MS for decades. I developed MS and Epilepsy in the same month at 47 whilst my iron levels were over recommended limits. My doctor ignored it. When I donated blood all my MS symptoms (fatigue, joint pain, daytime sleeping) disappeared in 24 hours, but it only lasted 11 days. I can get no help from my doctor, I'm below the criteria for DX of hemochromatosis. My symptoms always got better during menstruation also. I'm very frustrated with the medical profession!

I went to Sanford for CCSVI. After testing it was discovered that I have no blocked veins and I was sent home without treatment. This procedure has helpped many...but not me.
