Hello, Welcome to Chat Doctor. You are affected by a disorder in which iron accumulates in brain and other cells. It is due to mutation in gene called FTL gene. Please avoid intake of iron supplements. At present, there is no absolute cure for Neuroferritinopathy. You need physiotherapy and NSAIDs for painful joints. Adequate calorie intake is necessary. Only symptomatic management is currently available. Do all necessary investigations like Ferritin level in blew, MRI brain etc. Consult with your family doctor and Neurologist as well as genetics expert to have a better management and followup. Hope this helps. Take care.
