Why would my terrific go up

Posted , 1 user is following.

Had haemachromotosis for 12 years.

My question is usually my ferritin is within the 30-40 range but ferritin was 124 today when i phoned up, i was already booked in for venesection on the 29th . I usually get venesected every 16 weeks. About two years ago the same happened my numbers went up for no reason, but i have very bad health anxiety so i always think the worst.

Many thanks in advance for any help.
