Thanks for the question.

I see a couple abnormalities that you should ask your doctor about. First, your ferritin is low, indicating that you may benefit from iron supplements. Feeling tired and weak may come from a lack of iron. Iron deficiency can also cause anemia, although there is not evidence of anemia yet on your tests. Your diabetic A1C is also high (>6.5), indicating you may have diabetes. This can also cause fatigue and weakness.

I recommend you bring these ideas to your doctor to have a discussion about treatments that may benefit you.

I hope this helps,

Dr. Sheppe
