Iron causes the opposite problem for me sumi (and I thought for most people). I would say give it a few days. Also, take the supplements on a full stomach.

love's a dream you enter though I shake and shake and shake you
sumi, the effect of iron supplementation is usually the exact opposite; people complain of constipation more than any other side effect. I'd hazard a guess that you're sensitive to some other ingredient in the supplement. If the diarrhea doesn't go away in the next 24 hours, I'd give a call to your doc.

Art Crawl!!!
Well, that's interesting.
I'll give it a few days and see what happens.
Thanks.

Now tagless for your comfort.
sumi, I also had much better luck taking the iron suppliments with food. Empty tummy was baaaaaad.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
If I sound completely incoherent or skip over someone's important posts it is because I am currently feeling so very out of it. I hope my body gets used to these ADs quickly. I have to get up earlish tomorrow so that the insurance guy can come look at my car and assess the damage. I don't want to deal with this right now.
{{{Erin}}} That sucks. Sorry.
vw, you are a wonderful, kind friend. Try to relax and enjoy yourself.
There is an old saying about hostessing I try to live by-- "Never complain, never explain."
I like this.
Yay, Jen! Welcome to the world of the so very doomed.
Continued accident~ma, askye.

Mostly lurking...
J just left. We had a nice, low-key time...got some Chinese food and chatted. She loved her present. It was actually something she had looked at and thought about buying. She didn't stay long, because she was really worn out from her day. But, she said she had a really nice birthday, and she's going to stop by sometime next week when I'm studying for finals to give me a break (which tells me that my house must not have horrified her too much).

See vw, sounds lovely.
Good luck with finals, BTW.

That sounds like a lovely time, vw.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
I am hopelessly earwormed with a song from the Wicked soundtrack ("Dancing Through Life").
My head is totally stuffed up. I think perhaps it's full of dirty gym socks.
A new freelance gig just landed in my e-mail inbox, which is good, b/c it means $$ for me.
Welcome to the stream-of-consciousness that is my brain.
