I haven't focused much on the T2 side of things because others are responding about that, but checking that your heart rate is within safe limits is a separate issue. I don't know much about heart health screening, just that nurses record heart rate when they do other observations like BP etc. In my experience, my ferritin level fell to 17 (30 is the threshold used here for anaemia) and I felt very ill. If it dropped much more than that I would have started to potentially need some kind of infusion/transfusion (sorry I don't remember what was actually said). It took many months of treatment to get it back over 30, so the sooner I started the better.</blockquote>
