A member asked:
Is a blood iron level of 21 low ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Yes. You should get a complete blood count and check what your hemoglobin level is to see if you are anemic and how anemic. You should also get an "iron profile" and ferritin test to complete the testing for anemia.
