Hi,
The most common type of anemia is iron-deficiency anemia, but since your iron levels are within normal range, other forms of anemia are caused by many different factors, some caused (or associated with) recent surgery.
Review our anemia page: https://www.empowher.com/media/reference/anemia and let us know what questions you have. There are so many types of anemia that is impossible for us to know what type you have, what it is caused from, and what your treatment options are. It is great that you are seeing a specialist, and please know that most types of anemia are easily treated with diet or medications.
Please take care of yourself, let us know if you have any specific questions, and keep us updated after you see the hematologist!
