I'm a bit worried about my recent blood test results. My MPV came back as 11.8 H. What's the average MPV for a person? Is having an 11.8 H dangerous, and should I be concerned that it might be a sign of something serious, like cancer? I've attached my report for you to take a look.

Question

I'm really worried and could use some guidance. So, I had Jaundice last month, and during treatment, my doctor discovered I have Beta Thalassemia Minor. My hemoglobin count is typically between 7 and 9. Is this something I should be seriously concerned about? Also, I'm really into bodybuilding, so is it still okay for me to hit the gym? I heard that taking Folic Acid might help, but will using it long-term have any side effects? I'd appreciate your advice since this is all quite stressing me out.
