A member asked:
Rbcs are within the normal range but the iron is low(37)..i feel that there is something wrong with my head.why?

Early Fe deficiency?: Early iron deficincy produces feeling poorly before it produces anemia. You'll be checked for blood loss and your diet and (if you're a woman) periods and pregnancies will be reviewed. Your physician would do well to continue looking for some explanation for your other symptoms.
