?Ferritin Lab Result Really Really High???

[Joanne S]

I'm still getting Herception every three weeks. Last week, my onc ordered some lab tests (I previously never had) since my Hg is low and I'm anemic. My last Arenasp (spelling) injection was about 6 weeks ago. My B12 was in the normal range, but the Ferritin was 387---really really high. Anyone else have this lab test? Can you shed any info on this? Should I be concerned?

Thanks,
