A member asked:

I recently had labs drawn and don't understand my ferritin results of 20.7 ng/ml. how "normal" is this in the normal range? it seems low to me.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Low end: Please keep in mind that reference ranges are set so that a few percent of healthies fall outside on either end. Even more important, labs are only adjuncts to the history and physical exam. Do not focus on them. Your physician may want to investigate further or leave it alone.
