I'm trying to understand what "RBCs normocytic normochromic" means on my blood test results. Is it connected to anemia? It's a bit confusing, and I'm hoping you could explain it to me.

Question

What could be causing my mom's B12 levels to be so high? Her B12 is at 1200, and she hasn't been taking any supplements, so I'm really puzzled.

I've had a minor skin surgery recently, and my doctor recommended I get a CBP. I noticed in my report that my RBC and RDW levels are higher than normal, while my MCH, MCV, and MCHC are lower. Should I be worried about this? I'm generally healthy and don't have any symptoms that seem concerning to me. Can you help me understand what this might mean?

Question

I'm an 18-year-old healthy female, and I recently donated 450mL of my blood. Right after the donation, I stood up from the chair and felt this hot throbbing sensation in my neck and shoulders. Then the pain kind of spread down to my mid and lower back. My back has been seriously hurting since the donation, which was a little over a week ago. Should I consult a doctor?
