The only thing that jumps out at me is your high Iron. Iron overload should be addressed. It can impact many aspects of health and even suppress your bone marrow. Even though the cause is most likely the transfusions, they should rule out hemochromatosis. Either way, and depending on how high it is, you'll want to reduce it. It's would also be good get a current CBC and Chem panel.

Thanks for the reply, you are absolutely right. I do need to check the issue that I had with my high iron count. I'm just scared to find out bad news. But I do need to find out sooner than later.
