A member asked:

What could the following numbers indicate: rdw 18.1, mch 25.6, mchc 29.4, hematocrit 31.2, rbc 3.57, hemoglobin 9.2 ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Seriously sick: You are iron deficient until proved othetwise and should already have been advised of the seriousness of the situation. This may be due to your loss as a woman, to ill-advised vegetarianism, or to stomach ulcer or cancer. Please get on top of this. Best wishes.
