Help with wife's lab results

[Guest guest]

Here are my wife's lab results. Nick or Val may I have your opinion? I

believe the ferritin is high because of inflammation due to a back problem. And

I don't remember the recommended range for iron saturation. I calculate the

T3/RT3 to be about 17.45. Better than mine!

Thanks for your help.

Yes her iron is fine but it si showing inflammation. I would suggest

she get saliva cortilsl testing to se if thta is part of it as cortilsl

is the body's anti inflammatory hormone. And yes, she needs T3.
