 Can you show us the units? (I think I can guess, but I would prefer not to :) ) – Stephen Feb 28 2012 at 2:26

 @holly -- has there been any news on this? I would be interested in hearing how you are doing and whether there has been any change in your iron status. – Stephen May 23 2012 at 14:38
Ill dig up my labs. Ithink they're slightly better but my tibc is still out of range. – holly Jun 3 at 2:45
