Can I get some encouragement before my first phlebotomy?

C282Y/H63D compound heterozygous.

583 ferritin

58% sat

Today will be my first appointment. How should I prepare? Is it quick? Could I hear some success stories please regarding symptoms improvement?

For a year already I experience constant fatigue, anxiety, brain fog, weakness in general.

Just got my lab results, my doc doesn't even know what this is, he said I should not experience symptoms since my ferritin is only 600 (under 1000), and 57% saturation.

I feel fatigued all the time with other symptoms.

Could someone help what is the next step and what I need to do to lower my ferritin/ feel like myself again?

I was also diagnosed with hashimoto recently, however only my antibodies are high, hence did not get medication.
