Lightbulb these are not iron tests...

these are immune markers.

Don't underestimate a journal. It will really help with the diagnosis and speed treatment in the right direction.

Your CBCs are pretty normal for a woman. Many women would be lower in red cells. Many women still having periods show lower results.
You are almost out of range for MCV --this is a beginning marker for B12 deficiency. But your serum B12 is not really low. Some doctors ignore MCV commonly, unless there are other frank signs of anemia.
