How come my ferritin level is 7 and my iron level 135 can you explain why i am so tired if my iron level is so high?
Ferritin is a protein that stores iron. Low ferritin is a precursor to anemia, so if you do nothing about the low ferritin level your iron level will eventually drop.
What is the normal range of ferritin?

Is a ferritin level of 189 high?
A ferritin level of 189 ng/mL can be considered high. Normal levels can vary between labs, but typically fall between 20-250 ng/mL for women and 20-500 ng/mL for men. Elevated ferritin levels can be due to conditions like iron overload, inflammation, liver disease, or certain cancers. Consulting with a healthcare provider for further evaluation and interpretation is recommended.

What level should ferritin be in the body?
The normal level of ferritin varies between men and women: The lower the ferritin level, even within the "normal" range, the more likely it is that the patient does not have enough iron. Once the level dips below this range they are classified as being anemic and should see a hemotologist and a gastroenterologist for additional diagnostic tests and treatment. Normal ferritin levels follow: Male: 12-300 ng/mL Female: 12-150 ng/mL Note: ng/ml = nanograms per milliliter http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/003490.htm
Is 47 an ok measure of ferritin levels?
Usually, yes. Most labs list about 10-300 as the normal ferritin level. Inflammation can raise the level even if the iron is low so it is helpful to also check iron and TIBC (total iron binding capacity).
