Michelle, be sure to get a base-line level on your kidneys prior to taking the Exjade, as it can raise your serum creatinine level. My Dad has had a hard time with the Exjade, diahrrea, nauseau, stomach pain, vomiting. However, some people tolerate it quite well with little or no problem.
Dad's kidneys had been damaged by vasculitis in 2004, so they are vulnerable.
Best of luck!
