I have HH and donate regularly with Vitalant, who has a monopoly on donations in Colorado. When I was originally diagnosed 20+ years ago, I had a prescription and they discarded the blood. After some research I decided to monitor my own iron levels and decide myself when to donate. Without a prescription, they are able to use the blood.

I am newly diagnosed with HH. How do you monitor your ferritin levels?
