A member asked:
For 55+ female how should early/mid stage gi disorder (e.g. ulcer, tumor etc) affect cbc results ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It may not: In early stages and if the tumor and/or ulcer are not bleeding, CBC would be normal. If the lesion is bleeding, a mild to moderate iron deficient anemia may be found.
