I have normal hgb but low mcv mch and mchc ... please tell me what that indicates?

No worries: If your Hemoglobin(Hgb) is normal, then you do not need to worry about red cell indices(size of the cells and volume(MCV etc)). These parameters are only important in finding the cause of Anemia (low Hgb) if someone is Anemic. So you do not need to worry about these items.
