Hi, well it looks like the wheatgrass didn't do the trick for chelating enough iron for me so I will be starting on Exjade this week. My MRI liver scan taken this past week showed 13 grams of iron, so it's really high!

Good to know about needing to watch the creatinine levels as the cyclosporine I'm on can also impact that. Ugh, another medication!
