Numbers are just...: Results are just numbers. Without the whole picture, such as why was labwork done, numbers cannot tell much. The "slight hemolysis" may be fine for a normal person with no symptoms and no reason for hemolysis, but one should still ask his ordering doctor if the result is ok in the setting of his whole picture. Doctor can decide if slight hemolysis has any effect on results (it usually does not).
