High Transferrin, Normal Ferritin - Iron Overload

I had a blood test in mid-August.

Ferritin- 116 (30-400)
TIBC 354 (250-450)
UIBC 154 (111-343)
Iron Serum 200 (38-169)
Iron Saturation 56% (15%-55%)
Transferrin (calculated) 56.5% (24%-45%)

Should I donate as soon as possible, or am I making an issue where there is none since my Ferritin is fine? My CBC is not an issue:
RBC: 4.85
Hemoglobin: 14.6
Hematocrit: 44.2

Transferrin tested to 49.7% in June.

I am on TRT/HCG, don't take iron supplements. I do eat red meat quite a bit and drink a decent amount each weekend.

Hemoglobin: 14.6
Hematocrit: 44.2
I wouldn't donate blood at them levels, unless you just want to donate blood to help people in need.
