Low Hemoglobin contained by 12 year outdated?

When taking my 12 year old to the doctor for a fever which she said was viral I mentioned that he looked washed-out to me. She ran a hemoglobin test and said he was for a while low at 10.9. And that he should be at 11.8, my questions are this I cant find any definitive answer as to what a 12 year old boys count should be (they all differ) Is this incredibly low? Should I be concerned? She said to get him a multivitamin that contains iron, which I did, (Flinstones with Iron) I also bought some ensure which I am also giving him, is this overkill? Help
Answers:    woah woah woah!
don't give the kid ensure unless he's underweight, it will solitary make him gain.

she said it was A LITTLE low. she said it should be 11.8, so that's your answer. i don't really get what your examine is. give him the multi vitamin, and if you should be concerned, then the doctor would have taken more urgent act

don't worry about it, and i hope i helped!
My iron level were low too at that age and for a long time. I take the flinstone iron vitamins and I do fine. keep him on the vitamins and try and endow with him more food with iron and protein in it. my doctor told me that my iron level should enjoy been 12, though it might be different for boys.
