Just some thoughts:
1) Are you working with a GI doctor to rule out GI tract problems regarding potential parasite infection, gluten intolerance, bleeding etc.?
2) Since you are not absorbing iron, there a strong possibility you are low on other nutrients. I haven't kept up with iron disorders but from what I can recall, B2 and B6 are needed in order for your blood cells to utilize the iron. Low normal values and high values in a good nutritional work-uo should be investigated.
3) Have you worked with a allergist and rheumatologist to see if you have any allergies as well autoimmune issues?
4) Any latent/low grade infection going on? Bacterial, viral or fungal?
5) what's the reason for the high Eosinophil count
6) Tannins in tea and wine can inhibit iron absorption when having them with meals. Whereas vitamin C will help it.
