Your ferritin is below range which I believe indicates iron deficiency but I hope someone more knowledgable on iron will come along and comment soon.

Thanks, yeah I was told to get iron tablets for that which I did but they've given me headaches and made me feel really ill so I've stopped those for now. Seasidesusan has recommended I go back to gp to ask for an iron infusion.

That sounds like a good plan.
