A member asked:
Recently had a ct scan & blood work. would the drs. have seen from blood work if i was anemic or if i had low red blood cell count?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes, if they ordered: CBC, it will be all there, and even the type of anemia too. Be patient, and see your doctor for follow up. The bigger concern is the cause of the anemia and why they needed to do the CT scan to begin with. Take a friend or family member, so you have another set of ears, eyes hearing the discussion. That helps!
