My bloods were all fine but my full blood count and feritin levels only came back today, the full blood count was all normal thankfully but there is a note for me to see my GP this week about my feritin levels so im going on friday.

I know its low iron stores and its no wonder with my diet over the last 4 years does this mean im not aneamic? the receptionist did say the full blood count was fine so I took it that I musn't be. I have myself in a state thinking that it means that I must have cancer or something because ive been told your iron stores run out before you get anaemic and I panic if i get anamic:-( I know its a normal thing but im really upset because ive alot more bruises over the weekend and I feel headachy and generally crap.:(

My mum had the same problem a while ago and had to have frequent blood tests. She too had very bad tiredness, headaches, leg pains etc.... her dr told her they were all the symptoms of low iron stores.
