Question 2

hgb ur  ql trace-intact mean?

Accepted Answer

Several things: Hi. Either you&#x27;re having intravascular hemolysis and hemoglobin&#x27;s coming out in the urine, or there are red cells in the urine that measure as urinary hemoglobin. I&#x27;d recommend a urine analysis with microscopic evaluation to see if it&#x27;s reproducible. If no RBCs in urine, Check serum free hemoglobin and haptoglobin, and have a pathologist look at a peripheral blood smear. Good luck!

Question 5

test restults show hgb 14.1; cohb 3.7; 02hb 89.9; methb 1.0; o2 17.9.  i have trouble  takingq a good deep breath.  what could that mean?

Accepted Answer

Look elsewhere: Avoid smoke if you can, and look for some physical / mechanical / chest or lung disease explanation for your inability to take a deep breath. Your bloodwork won't tell us why. As a pathologist, i'm always urging doctors and patients to look at "the numbers" only as an adjunct to the history and physical exam. Good luck.
