![]() ?I called the manufacturer / supplier of the iron used for infusions, their medical rep explained to me that the symptoms I described can be side effects from their product although very uncommon something like < 1 /1000 patients and the symptoms you and some others are experiencing are common side effects but should be gone with in a couple of days < 1/10 patients. Another doctor told me that everyone is different in how long side effects remain with some patients, he said to try and hang out for a couple of more days. one doctor explained to me that the side effects should of gone and the iron should be starting to making me feel better not worse by now and should get to our emergency room. Halfway through the infusion I got chest pain, I told the nurse and was asked to take my angina spray, that eased the chest pain, then it reappeared 15 minutes later, GTN took care of it again, now I'm getting chest pain 3-4 times a day since the infusion I still felt sick after and I was informed that it all will be short lived, I'm still feeling sick and the chest pains, I have sore /achy knee joints, feels exactly the same as the side effects from Statins, I'm also experiencing the sweats at random times, sometimes profusely and for no reason, Indigestion and intermittent pains in the back, I have spent the last 5 days in bed, no energy and feeling weak, opiate based pain relief is the only thing that relieves the knee and chest pain. I had my first one last week and before procedure it was explained to me what side effects may occur, some did happen but they were short lived by the time the infusion had finished. ?Yes I agree this is the only discussion I could find in regards to iron infusion.
