My lab test for ferritin serum was 376, should i be concerned?

Depends: Your level is above the normal but not too high. You should consult your doctor especially if there is a family history of iron disorder, such as hemochromatosis. Should you have the genetic mutation for the disease, the treatment is easy, by phlebotomy. Consult this site for info. https://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/003490.htm
