Hi Andy,
Thanks for your reply
I am sure it's not false reading and she has high ferrtin because my wife was not chelating well for the past 10 years! She was not aware about The dengrous resulta and Unfortunately I didn't know about it too!
We are going to pay more attention to hepatitis C but I don't know where to get Milk Thistle from here in Egypt? Please can you help?
We will be very patient and my question for you Andy is Dose Desferal with high dose 3grams daily (6 vials) effecting liver function?! Why her ALT & AST goes up fast when she is chelating? Is it because of agressive chelating she started suddenly after long time? Do we have to stop desferal and work on hepatitis? Or we can work on both at the same time? I am so confused and don't know what to do!! I am so worried as we are just focusing on high ferritin and we didn't pay attention to hepatitis, few months ago we went to Liver Doctor and he said that her liver was enlarged but he said she is ok and virus counts are so little and we did fibro scan and he said she is OK too so she told me that might be from Iron overload and she started on chelating now after I read here I understood many things and I am helping her to understand it too But we don't want to make any dengrous mistakes!! Thank you so much Andy and will be waiting for your reply.
