Staring down a Fibro/long covid based on most bloods coming back fine.
Possibly hormonal fuckery going on but they are weird results. He is referring me.

Iron level is 25 (normal range is 15 to 300.)
Oestrogen lower than the lab can count.
LH & FSH normal (with low oestrogen they should go up...)

I am... every single emotion and don't really know what to do with this information.
