Hold on a moment, why is iron so low? 19.7 what? How is your hemoglobin and hemocrit? We’re you supplementing at all prior to the test?

I thought 19.7 was on the high side, readings can be fo confusing!

[WideBody]

A normal serum iron level for adults is 60–170 micrograms per deciliter (mcg/dL).

This is equivalent to 10.74–30.43 micromoles per liter (micromol/L)

So I guess if you are micromole/L, your are ok, but if it mcg/dL, You should see a Hematologist. Being from the other side the pond, I only ever see mcg/dL.

Good luck ,please keep us posted.
