I ordered the iron patch and hope it works.. I'm severely anemicI just wanted to add, if you can't take the vitamins for whatever reasons (not agreeing with your stomach, don't like the taste) you can always try the patch. I did not know about this until a week prior to surgery. I bought the patch at Patchaid.com. Per my surgeons office, I only needed the Multivitamin patch. It's easy, doesn't bother my skin and works. I just had my bloodwork done and everything is within normal ranges.
