WAS TOLD TO GET MY IRON UP OR ELSE NO SURGERY

My op is in 4 weeks and have been told my iron is very low and need to increase my iron levels by 3 weeks so they can give me another blood test to see if my iron has gone up & if not my surgery will be cancelled. I’m so upset I’m anaemic and don’t think my iron levels will increase that much by 3 weeks, any advice please? I’m eating high rich iron foods for the next 3 weeks and taking feroglobin iron liquid supplement 14mg a day and vitamin c to help absorb the iron quickly. Do you think that will increase within 3 weeks? Has anyone else experience similar ?xx

Did you get the op done I’m worries about my iron levels x

Yeah I got it done because my iron levels went up. If you’re not anaemic you have nothing to worry about sorry about the later response
