Hello,
I read carefully your query and understand your concern.
The ferritin level is very lowe which may cause an anemia due to iron deficiency.
I suggest to start a treatment with iron and vitamin B12 supplement for three months.
After the treatment, I suggest to repeat the examinations.
Hope my answer was helpful.
If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.
Kind regards!
