What causes high Ferritin and low Bilirubin total?

High Ferritin and low Bilirubin total can be caused by many reasons.

If your Ferritin is in between 22 ng/mL and 322 ng/mL and your Bilirubin total is in between 0.2 mg/dL and 1 mg/dL then you need not worry as these are the normal ranges for Ferritin and Bilirubin total respectively.
