I'm just wondering wheather opioids (codeine) can affect the results of a blood test, and if so, in what way?

Also, do opioids affect your iron levels?
 
I got my blood test done a few weeks ago, i take a very strong multivitamin containg a high dose of iron. The result was that my iron level was ok but my iron stores were low so its possible, im addicted to opiates btw xxx
 
Thanks for replying.
I know my Ferrtin (iron stores) levels were extremely low on my last blood test, however, I wasn't taking opioids then.

Apart from iron, does opioids change any other blood results? Or did everything come back normal?
