A member asked:

How could i have a low red blood count (rbc) but a normal hemoglobin and hematocrit?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

How low?: An increase in red cell size, macrocytosis, may account for the disparity. Alcohol and low thyroid function may cause macrocytosis with near normal hemoglobin.
