The doctor seemed to think it was Haemochromatosis (not sure of the spelling) He ordered a headitry test which has now came back negative.Does anyone have any ideas what this could be?
It's Just another 6 weeks wait to see the doctor if any knows what could cause high ferritin and the symptoms i would really appreciate your help

Thank you

Ask about dysautonomia. There are various types that can cause similar symptoms. Chronic fatigue syndrome or mono are other possibilities.

I would suggest a Complete thyroid panel, TSH, Free T4 Free T3, Ringing and fatigue are two of many symptoms of Underactive thyroid or Hypothyroid  Good Luck FTB4
