My ferritin levels are critically low (18) but because my haemoglobin is normal, the doctor has said no sort of transfusion will be accepted as I am not anaemic.
I already take supplements to support my ferritin and they’re clearly not working, but the doctors think that I should just get on with it.
For context, my hair doesn’t grow past my shoulders, I am extremely tired every day, I have lost so much fitness (struggling with breathing) and I have palpitations frequently.
What else can I suggest? Feel at a loss here :(
