[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Symptoms are fatigue, dizziness, some exercise intolerance, cold hands, general feeling of unwellness. Lots and lots of things tested, all normal or near normal. Iron level (115) and TIBC are normal, but a few years ago Ferritin was 22, and before that it was 20 - which are at low end of normal. No doctor has brought my Ferritin level up as an issue, but online I’m reading about how some people are symptomatic at that ferritin level even if iron and TIBC are normal. Also have slightly low RBC and high MCV. Should I be looking for a different doctor than primary care for this? I keep hearing that “labs are good,” but I feel like cr@p. [/quote] See a hematologist.
