A doctor has provided 1 answer

Diagnosis: Labs alone do not a diagnosis make. You may have some iron deficiency, but the values you have given are insufficient to make that diagnosis. You need to discuss these findings with the doctor that ordered the tests.Vitamin D supplements may be necessary for older people, people living in northern latitudes, and for dark-skinned people who need extra time in the sun, but don’t get it.
