If you've got a copy on paper or online of your blood results on the right in brackets should give the ranges Should also be highlighted if out of range

The measurements used are different to the ones used for mine

B12 looks below range though

It appears to be active B12 in which case it’s quite high in the range. However, as Nackapan says, your results should include the range and if you could post this information too it would help so we can give you a better reply.

Hi NaomiB12

Your ferritin seems low, optimal ranges are 70-90ug/L for a woman. Has this been highlighted on your results?

Your folate serum levels appear low, ideally they should be >4ug/L. Has this been highlighted on your test results?

Your active b12 seems fine, anything >50pmol/L

You need to consider these results in the context of your symptoms and other blood test results. What did you GP advise?
