A member asked:
What does it mean when you have low red blood count, low hemoglobin, low hemocrit and high platelet count?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Anemia: A low red blood cell count is called anemia. Anemia can be further classified as microcytic when due to iron deficiency, or macrocytic when due to B12 deficiency. Sometimes we have a low blood cell count from bleeding or several other disorders. Elevated platelets are called thrombocytosis. Platelets are an acute phase reactant and elevate for several primary and secondary reasons.
