A member asked:
What happens if the range for the red blood cell is 3.80-5.10 and mine is 5.11?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Stop worrying: Reference ranges are set so that a few percent of healthies fall outside on either end. If your hemoglobin is low-ish and your red cells quite small, you may have thal minor, which is important to know if your spouse also has it. Best wishes.
