Actually do not need to worry.
Serum ferritin levels comes to normal within 7 to 10 after blood transfusion.
And raised serum ferritin for 7 to 10 days, does not cause any harm to body.
And to reduce quickly, just avoid iron rich foods, like spinach, meat, chicken, eggs, and other iron rich foods for 10 days.
I hope your query is clear now.
