My 6 yo had appt w/ hematology. results show elevated ldh, elevated retic and increased hgb f. is this consistent with beta thalassemia trait?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Other ideas: There are a variety of mild hemoglobinopathies that might be a better fit. I am glad Junior is going to get his workup so he can make informed choices as an adult. Best wishes.
