    Hi my ferritin was 13 hb 11 i was perscribed ferrous sulphate because my dr said she wanted me to have a minimum level of 25 on the ferritin. Ask your dr what he thinks are acceptable levels you shouldn't have to suffer.

    Hi . 11 is low; I don't know why he would say that is normal.

    My doctor put me on a three week course of tablets and as far as I know it's done the trick.  Just go back and say you are still not feeling well and could he review you again.  Best of luck Take care Netz
