bout a moth ago I had a physical and my blood work came back with high iron levels 55 doc said normal was anywhere from 17 to 45 I just had another blood test to double check ( a month has pasted). If this comes back high again I was wondering if the cause is because I don't drink enough (hardly any water) would it help dullute the iron levels I wonder if I could bring them down through diet? And is that 55 way over or just slightly FYI I'm a 33 yr old female that has no other health problems other than spottng in the middle of my cycle for the past 4 months(related I don't know) I have an average 1 beer a day or less

Which iron measurement is your doc referring to? Hemochromotosis diagnosis typically requires that your doc run a test for transferrin and ferritan levels as well as iron.
