high iron ferritin & B12 levels???

I  just received results back from my labs done a few weeks ago.  My iron ferritin level (iron storage)  & b12 levels are very high.  I have been referred to the GI department for my iron ferritin levels.  My doctor's appt isn't until October 19th.  Has anyone ever had high iron ferritin levels?  If so what was the outcome?
Thanks,
Monica

Hi Monica.

Sorry I've not read anything on here in a while...

My last blood tests showed that my blood ferritin levels are low, so I have to take a prescription iron supplement...but, my b12 was high..I have to cut them down to three times a week...

If my iron levels continue to go down, I'll have to go to a hemetologist and hopefully get it under control by pill method.  I know people that have to go and have iv iron done.

I'm not sure what a high ferritin level means.  Do you take too much vit w/ iron in it?  You may have to get a vit w/o iron in it.

Good luck,
paula

I wish I had high ferritin levels - that means your iron stores are high.     My iron tanked a couple of years ago, and I ended up having a set of iron infusions (easiest thing EVER!).   Now, the only iron I take is in my prenatal vitamins, and my levels are normal.

So what are you taking in terms of vitamins?
