You should make an appointment with your doctor, point out that your ferritin level is below range and ask for a full blood count and iron panel. Low ferritin can indicate iron deficiency anaemia and those other tests will investigate this. Ferritin below range is not something you should be just treating yourself.

Can I check your thyroxine dose of "111 mg"? Did you mean to type "mcg" which is 1,000th of a mg?
