I recently received my blood test report, and I noticed that some of the values, specifically Cholesterol, CHCM, MCV, MCH, and MCHC are slightly outside the normal range. I would like to understand what these results mean and if they indicate any health concerns.

Abnormal red cell indices may indicate mild anemia. Slight cholesterol variation is manageable with diet/exercise. Consult a general physician.
