RE: Post-op Blood/Lab Test Results

I had Gastric Bypass in November of 2009. Recently I have been experiencing occasional dizziness and weakness upon standing so my surgeon recommended some lab tests to rule out possible anemia. I'm supposed to talk with him on Monday about the following numbers that apparently "stood out" a little: Hemoglobin = 11.4 (low) MCH = 26.4 (low) Calcium, Serum = 8.4 (low) Vitamin B12 and Folate = > 1999 (high) Ferritin, Serum = 6 (low) From what I can tell - of the numbers that were highlighted, any that were off were only slighly off from the "normal" range. Does anyone know if any of these numbers are concerning at all or do things look fine? Thanks for any feedback you can offer ~
