A member asked:
Hb 129 g/l. ferritin 19(12-250) iron 7.8(5.0-30.0) transferrin 3.30(1.9-3.8) transferrin sat. 9% (15-50). exhausted/sleepy, headaches, generally not feeling great - dont these results point to low iron/iron deficiency? or is it normal as hb normal?

Fatigue: Lab tests are normal. Differential diagnosis includes obstructive sleep apnea, depression, insomnia, other issues. First, ask someone else (spouse? significant other?) if you snore at night, then if yes get a Sleep Study. Sleep Apnea is very common issue that causes all your symptoms.
