high ferritin levels

Postby Kick'nAssCancer'sAss » Tue Nov 04, 2014 3:44 pm

Had blood test last month ferritin was 800 which is high but not high enough to warrant any treatment. Seems inflamation from surgery can effect levels and make them higher. I was dealing with a still healing surgery wound from my ostomy in late August. Anyways just wondering if anyone else has had the same experience. I did not even know what ferritin was until she brought it to my attention.
