The 70-90 recommendation is for serum ferritin. Sorry but I'm not familiar with

a plasma ferritin test.

for a s-ferritin but I noticed she ordered a p-ferritin. Should I try to make

that s-ferritin or is it the same for both?

I think I found the answer. According to a doctor I talked to the results are

the same if you measure ferritin in serum and plasma.
