Iron deficiency: Has a hematologist investigated the cause of the iron deficiency? Blood loss would be high on the list of causes. If his total iron binding capacity remains elevated, he would still be deficient in iron stores and he may remain anemic. Knowing levels of hematocrit,hemoglobin,red cell indices,b12 and folic acid levels, wbc,platelet count and serum electrophoresis(myeloma) is helpful if no bleeding
