Anemic: You have anemia with a striking large size of your red cells or marcrocytosis. This is a type of anemia usually associated with B12 or folate (folic acid) deficiency. However this can be associated with bone marrow tumors like leukemia or myelodyspasia. Make sure you get your B12 and folate (folic acid) measured. Probably a visit with a hematologist would be helpful.

Anemia: Looks like you are anemic, many things can cause that, including internal bleeding and chronic diseases. Wtih chest pain, you should always see a doctor right away to make sure you aren't having a heart attack. Call your doctor or go to the hospital.
