All laboratory results need to be interpreted in the clinical context and the doctor who ordered the tests is usually in the best position to do that. Talk to the doctor who ordered the tests. Having said that, visit this site for info and talk to your doctor: https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/polycythemia Wish you good health!

I just had a cbc. RBC, hemoglobin, and hematocrit were low and everything else normal. Same result two yrs ago and had a clear colonoscopy in between. I'm 50f and post menopause. What might be the cause? I'm concerned about the cost of more testing?
