Hi mumsnetters
Not an AIBU, but can anyone help me understand the meaning of my blood results please?
I'd been feeling exhausted and went to GP in May who did bloods and recommended iron supplements, which I've been taking. Said she didn't understand how I'd been managing to function on my levels.
May 19. Oct 19
Ferritin. 4.8 7.3
Iron saturation. 5.1. 9.1
Haemoglobin. 10.8. 12.4
My iron saturation is still very low (range is 30 to 40). Could this be why I'm still feeling super tired?
Ps have had endoscopy and colonoscopy in July, which are fine. White blood cell count and glucose also normal. Have also gone onto mini pill to reduce my v heavy peri menopausal periods
Thankyou
