Ferritin: The cause of the low ferritin levels is more likely to effect your erections than the levels them selves.

My ferritin level is 3,320 as of now. It was 2,200 a few months ago. I was first told that I had Hemochromotosis and underwent the taking of my blood for about 6 weeks, until I became weak . I've had 2 doctors tell me that I don't have Chemo?
