That's pretty good. Mine drops to < 1 sometimes. I don't tend to get symptoms unless it's under 2. My lab has the same reference range.

The other good test to have is caeruloplasmin. This is to copper what ferritin is to iron. If you don't have enough caeruloplasmin you can't use the copper that you do have.
