No, hardly it will take a few investigations for better diagnosis

Dr. Siri Suggests...

Take a OMEGA - 3 & OMEGA - 6 FATTY ACID Test or Take a Apollo Vitamin Check (Vit D + Vit B12) Test

My blood report shows RBC normocytic normochromic with mild anisopoikilocytosis. WBC shows lymphocytic predominance with mild eosinophilia. Platelets are adequate on the smear. What does it mean? Thank you.

She has a high fever, swelling around her eyes, and weakness. I have attached her blood report for malaria, which seems normal.

My cousin recently had a CBC blood test, and the report shows Normocytic Normochromic RBC with mild erythrocytosis. Should this be a cause for concern? What can be done to manage or treat this condition? He has experienced some weight loss. He previously underwent surgery for thyroid cancer, and his latest scan is clear. He also received RAI therapy with a 100 mCi dose, and he has been doing fine since then. Is this blood report something to worry about?
