Too little info: It sounds like a liver problem, but without actually seeing your bloodwork and ultrasound or whatever other reports, it's virtually impossible to make the correct diagnosis.

Need more informatio: We can not comment on these blood tests without knowing your hemoglobin and hematocrit andtotal rbc level.Total iron, iron binding capacity and most important ferritin level also need to know the values of liver enzymes;level of indirect bilirubin i suggest you consult your doctor who may have all this information and can tell you if anything needs to be done or just follow up.
