Almost normal: Red cell width is presented in more than one way. In any case it is not materially abnormal in your case. If this is the only parameter that is outside the reference range, it is not a cause for concern. See this site for more info. http://emedicine.medscape.com/article/2098635-overview.

Size matters: Rdw just tells you the size of your rbcs. Iron deficiency can make your RDW be low.
