A member asked:
Is 30.0 g/dl a worrying low valve for mchc? and does this value vary abruptly. reading on 11/02/2023 was 34.0 g/dl and on 24/02/2023 was 30.0g/dl. these were performed in different labs. should i be worried by these especially the 30.0g/dl?

A slight off from normal value of MCHC (N=31-34g/dl) is not alarming. If you are really concerned, get another CBC at the same lab.

All laboratory/imaging 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, your results are not a cause for concern, Wish you good health!
