Serum Iron is not a helpful test and with your Hb of 14- can ignore it. Serum Iron test was designed to identify patients with any conditions causing Iron overload. Bizarrely they are using it routinely now. On your report it mentions slightly low B12 and low Vitamin D. This needs replacement. All the best. J G S R clinic
