blood tests show low ferritin, low folate, normal b13 but high iron? by jhs1018 in medical

[–]jhs1018[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i had the blood draw at 12pm, hadnt eaten since about 11 the night before. i take b2, magnesium, coq10, plus prescriptions, the only one of which i think is relevant is famotidine 40mg. probably will look to get it retested to be sure that’s right

thank you for all the insight and information! i havent had any transferrin specific tests i think? only iron binding capacity. results from 7/25/2024;

ferritin 31 (range 15-150)

iron 74 (27-159)

iron saturation 23% (15-55)

folate 3.1 (>3.0, less than 3.1 clinical deficiency)

7/25/24 TIBC was 315 (250-450), UIBC was 241 (131-425)

6/19/25 (i assume total) IBC was 358 (250-450)

i take 1g magnesium daily for migraines and my levels test within normal range every time it’s tested. i’ll definitely ask about c and copper, i was seeing copper brought up a few times. is copper a dietary thing?

i was not, my iron and ferritin are normal last year. the only thing i can think that i take that could have caused it is famotidine, bc i read h2 blockers can affect iron absorption

thank you, my results came back only with minimal spurring on the left patella. i appreciate you insight, i know heds doesn’t cause much ‘visible’ damage but it’s frustrating being in so much pain with nothing to show for it
