Low ferratin normal iron

I was told by a doctor I would need to ask a gastroenterologists this question but I can't really get to see one just to ask one question.
On my blood test results my iron levels are normal (for the first time in ages) but I noticed my ferratin was very low. When I looked up low ferratin on the net it old me that you will suffer from anemic symptoms still if your ferratin is low even when your iron is normal.
By the sounds of things I have enough iron but my body is not utilising it properly.
?????????????????
I was hoping someone might be able to shed some light on the subject??

A low ferritin (which is a protein that stores iron) indicates iron deficiency, and it's the most accurate test for that deficiency.  However, sometimes ferritin levels can be elevated by other health issues.  But that's not you... yours shows up as low, so the factor of a false elevated ferritin reading does not come into play, is the way I interpret the info on ferritin numbers, which I read about in my Merck Manual.  But anyway, I would say despite your iron levels showing up as normal, your ferritin levels showing up as low means you still have iron deficiency.  So what you read on the internet is apparently correct, that you would still show symptoms of anemia even if your iron numbers look normal.  That's why they do the ferritin tests, along with several others similar to it, so that anemia is being properly treated and its origins have been correctly pegged.
