YOu may want to call your doctors office

Do you know how to reach dr versteeg since he has moved to mason city...or has he not moved practice yet?

They are checking your Iron binding levels to see if you're anemic.  If you are that would explain why you're so tired.  Talk to your doctor about it.

Hi, I believe that you can reach him through Dr. Mock 641-422-6900. If that does not work I also can get the pager of one of his nurses. But I would try Dr. Mock's # first.
Good luck!!

Call the Ft Dodge number, it still transfers to his office.

Total Iron Binding Capacity - from my understanding and from what my hematologist tells me, the ferretin is a better test to actually determine if you are iron deficient.
