[QUOTE="FDV70, post: 243266, member: 43104"] "My point was that 7 points difference in ferritin labs is not terribly significant" It's plausible it's testing itself I suppose. Hypoxia will drive up Hypoxia-inducible Factor 1-alpha which is inflammatory, but it's not the prime mover of hepcidin. But it can contribute. Hypoxia's biggest contributor is EPO up -> erythroferrone up -> hepcidin down. In the case of apnea, I would imagine HIF-1a is probably at a steady state, but EPO might be cyclical enough "fever from virus exposure" Absolutely would give a bump to ferritin, but when hemoglobin is 16 or higher, you actually keep the ferritin that goes up when it's under 70. We've seen it in guys on TRT after covid. I think the lab measure difference makes a lot of sense. [/QUOTE]
