I have a friend with the following lab values. My question is, does this warrant supplementing iron? Since the Ferritin is normal, I'm not sure why the iron is low, unless this lab is incorrect.
Erythrocite count 5.52 4.5-6.5
Haemoglobin 16.2 13.8-18.8
Haematocrit 0.49 0.40-0.56
MCHC 33.1 32-36
MCH 29.4 27-35
Platelets 236 150-450
Iron 2.1 11.6-31.3
Transferrin 34.4 26.0-47.0
% Saturation 3.1 20.0-55.0
Ferritin 121 20-300
