Everything is low. Is your doctor going to help you to increase your levels? Can you get supplements from your GP do you know? Taking folic acid can mask a B12 deficiency and although in range, B12 is low. Low ferritin could also mean that B12 deficiency does not show up in blood tests. Folate is very low if you are supplementing so something seems not quite right. Did your blood tests include a check for anemias? Could you get some further blood tests to find out what's going on? You could read more about B vitamin deficiencies and anemia on the Pernicious Anaemia website. pernicious-anaemia-society....
