Have thalassemia min blood work cbc done hematocrit was 10.2 now 9.9 is there any worry? should i see a hematologist? or should i take a vitamin?

Hemoglobin?: It is not likely that your hematocrit was 10.2, it was likely your hemoglobin. The drop from 10,2 to 9.9 is not clinically meaningful. You may take a vitamin if you wish.
