Looks like these are not UK lab results? What has the doctor said about high ferritin and reduced kidney function? Have you had a full iron panel? Do you suffer from bladder infections? Do you have coexisting conditions? Do you take other medication?
What exactly do you mean by 'out of whack' and 'balanced'? You appear to have a conversion problem. Which is why your FT4 is quite high in range, but your FT3 is low. And that is unlikely to 'balance' on T4 only.
