Treatment and symptoms of TIBC 398 mcg/dL | Diet for normal Total iron binding capacity level 398 mcg/dL

TIBC 398

Normal TIBC level of 398 can cause a number of symptoms.

An abnormal Total Iron-Binding Capacity (TIBC) of 398 may suggest alterations in the body's capacity to transport iron, reflecting iron metabolism or storage issues. A TIBC value of 398 is typically evaluated alongside serum iron and transferrin saturation to assess for conditions like anemia, chronic disease, or liver dysfunction. Abnormal TIBC levels can indicate the presence of inflammation, malnutrition, or excessive iron loss, helping in differential diagnosis of anemia types. You have several treatments to choose from, but the most important thing is to change your diet now.

Below are the symptoms and treatments associated with high TIBC levels:

  • Symptoms of High TIBC (Iron Deficiency or Malnutrition):
    • High TIBC levels suggest that there is a higher capacity for iron transport, which can be indicative of iron deficiency anemia or poor iron stores.
    • Symptoms associated with high TIBC include fatigue, weakness, dizziness, and pale skin as the body attempts to compensate for insufficient iron in red blood cells.
    • In severe cases, individuals may experience shortness of breath or chest pain due to inadequate oxygen delivery to tissues.
  • Treatments for High TIBC Levels:
    • If high TIBC is caused by iron deficiency, iron supplementation through oral or intravenous iron is the most common treatment to increase iron stores in the body.
    • In cases of high TIBC related to malnutrition, improving dietary intake of iron-rich foods like red meat, legumes, and fortified cereals is important.
    • For chronic conditions leading to high TIBC, managing the underlying disease (e.g., blood loss or gastrointestinal malabsorption) may help normalize TIBC levels.
    • In some cases, a more detailed iron profile (including serum iron and ferritin) may be needed to guide treatment plans.

What to do after TIBC blood test?

If bleeding occurs after your TIBC test, raise your arm and apply pressure to the spot for at least 3 minutes. It’s normal to see some bruising after a TIBC blood draw. If you feel pain following the TIBC test, apply ice wrapped in a towel to the area for 10 minutes. For anything more than mild discomfort, contact your doctor.
