Last blood work showed high RDW (15.8), low MCH (25.7) but normal Hemoglobin 13.4 and normal hematocrit 41.6. Inquired about anemia. Was told possible Early Red Cell Release (hematocrit count had not been factored in). Would it be serious condition?

A member asked:

Could I have blood in stool if my hemoglobin was 15.1? I saw red spots in one of my stools, I am not sure if it is blood or if it's from pizza and pasta I ate two days ago? I also had two pieces of desert which contained raspberry preserves filling?
