Iron Infusions and Class 1 Medical
Hi all,
I'm about to start a university program to get my CPL, and before I invest the $$ I want to make sure a certain medical issue I've been having won't preclude me from a Class 1 medical (CASA). I keep getting fairly anaemic (Hb around 8-9.0, ferritin of 2-4) and end up having iron infusions to get me back to normal.
I'm 25, F, and have no major medical conditions. I'm an active runner, my diet is full of red meat and green veg, and I don't drink tea or coffee. I've tried supplementing with oral iron which didn't work, and I've had the ever delightful colonoscopy/endoscopy, both of which found nothing. Are iron infusions something I can continue to have while maintaining a Class 1 medical? In the meantime, I will certainly continue to have the cause investigated. Thanks for any advice.
