I'm a bit concerned about my lab results. My RDW is 14.7, which I believe is normal, but my eosinophils are at 6.1, and I'm wondering if thats on the higher side since the normal range is 1 to 6. My MPV is 11.7 fL, which seems normal since the range is 7.2 to 11.1. Also, my platelet count is 207,000 and normal, but Im still curious about the eosinophils being slightly elevated. Could this mean something I should be worried about? Any insight would be really helpful.

I'm a bit worried because I need to have an operation soon, and my haemoglobin level is only at 9.7. Do you have any advice on how I can raise it quickly?

I recommend taking Ferrous Sulfate 325 mg tablets once daily. Additionally, include iron-rich foods in your diet such as red meat, poultry, fish, beans, and dark leafy greens. Vitamin C can also help with iron absorption, so consider taking a Vitamin C supplement or consuming foods high in Vitamin C like citrus fruits, strawberries, and bell peppers. Remember to stay hydrated and get plenty of rest to support your body's recovery and hemoglobin production.

I'm a bit concerned about my CBC report results. The PDW is at 19.3, the MPV is showing 13.1, and the PLCR is 51.0, which I learned are high values. What could this mean for my health? Should I be worried, and what steps should I take next?

These are of no much significant unless you have any specific disease you can ignore them
