A member asked:
Should a low hematocrit count be investigated further?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: A complete initial evaluation is warranted. There are some persons with known diseases - diagnoses who have chronic low hematocrit. Renal failure, Hemoglobinopathies, are some examples. Bone marrow suppression and vitamin deficiencies and other conditions may require major treatments.
