A member asked:
Had a some blood tests done and my doctor said my red cells were slightly out of the normal range, what could be the reason?

Anemia: Usually this means low. To list the causes of anemia takes a dozen pages in a medical textbook. The key will be finding the cause. If it is iron deficiency, try to find why you are iron deficient. If some other cause, find how it's best managed.
