    Just curious, do you take Omeprazole or a PPI. Seems like I recall reading that someone here had an issue with Omeprazole and iron deficiency which could explain your MCV and MCH. If you do use a PPI, run a Google on "omeprazole and iron".

    Also, I've tanked my ferritin before and had almost exactly the same issues. On the other hand, my blood is stupid and generally acts nuttier than a tree full of squirrels.

    IDK, maybe that will help you either find an answer or rule out some things.

    Please post up in this thread when you eliminate possibilities or get any answers. Ain't none of us getting any younger.
    Sorry for the delay but had to go out of town for a funeral. I don't take Omeprazole or a PPI. I have my annual physical today and I will be talking to my doc about fixing these numbers. I will add to the debate, I do a low (200mg a week) tren Ace with 200mg test cyp 8 week cycle twice a year and came off on July 10th. I don't give blood to often, this year I did on 3/28 & 5/23 In 21 I gave blood 5 times.

    Please share whatever information you can after your Dr visit/lab values come in. Hopefully the labs will shed sone light.
    There are 3 loves in my life: my wife, my English mastiffs, and my weightlifting....Man, my wife gets really pissed when I get the 3 confused...
