Dr. Hugh Wegwerth is like a detective, searching for the root cause of his patient's chronic pain. One day, he stumbled upon a simple blood test called ferritin, which measures the body's iron storage.
After discovering that his client's ferritin level was alarmingly high, he recommended giving blood to lower it. Within four months, her ferritin level dropped significantly, and her pain disappeared.
Dr. Wegwerth encourages others suffering from chronic pain to consider ferritin testing and personalized functional medicine solutions.
