I don’t think I’ve ever had that tested unfortunately
low iron in blood would mean infection in your case. high iron in blood, would mean iron overload.
and without getting rid of it. you will not get fixed.
since infection will grow and create oxidative stress.
and this will effect your liver and the whole nine yards.
so you better test iron in blood, if low, then you have an infection
if iron is high , take IP6 for a while, lower it, and this will kill your infections, and help your body restore th1 th2 balance.
strep infections usually happen from taking iron, or taking steroids. since testosterone retains iron. and lowers hepcidin.
So look into this
