Wwyd??
I have mild iron deficiency anaemia - reading is 10 but my ferris serum levels were 7 which should be between 200-300.
I have lots of symptoms for anaemia - horrible tinnitus, seriously knackered all the time, dizziness, restless legs etc.
2 years ago I had a blood test that showed I full blood count as normal.
I used to have really heavy periods but over the last 2 years they've really settled and are what I would guess at as average.
My grandmother had coeliac disease.
I have no bowel symptoms but from my research this is not uncommon in adults with it.
Should i go back to my gp to get tested and go through the long performance and probably be told at the end I havent got it or shoudl I buy a £20 kit to test myself, or should I forget it?
