A member asked:
What are normal newborn iron serum levels and where can i find the medical literature that can verify this in a court of law?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
How can we help?: Most run 100-300 micrograms/l. Now please forgive my frankness. You are very angry and are planning to sue somebody, but you don't have an attorney / expert who can provide you with this basic piece of information. This is a hard and sad road that i'd like to spare you. Newborn serum iron levels mean little. What's really on your mind? Perhaps there is a misunderstanding and we can help.
