My iron was very low on the onset of my anemia two years ago. I’ve been on an iron supplement since then. I was completely checked out by my GI doctor and all is well there. He diagnosed me then as being “iron deficient.” Iron is now normal but I’m still “mildly anemic” with an 11.4 Hemoglobin and a 3.75 RBC. I’m seeing a hematologist who specializes in anemia on 5/15 to see why I’m still mildly anemic when iron levels are now normal.
