Firstly, I do have a GP appointment booked. My results are as follows:
Transferrin saturation index 7 % 16 - 50
Serum transferrin 3.63 g/L 1.8 - 3.6
Serum iron level 5.9 micromol/L 11 - 30
Serum ferritin 12.2 microg/L 30 - 336
I understand that these mean iron deficiency, but how serious? I do feel fairly awful...are they likely to suggest iron tablets?
