Re: I need help with lab test, please

Hi Rena,

Not to throw a cog in the wheel, but it is my understanding that "normal" levels have nothing to do with optimal levels. I don't know how to read the blood tests levels, but can you google for it? Hope someone here knows enough to share it so we can all learn!

Peace on earth.

I need help with lab test, please

Hello,

My mother had a lab blood test and the following came out abnormally high:

RBC 5.26

Hemoglobin 15.3

Hematocrit 45.6

EGFR 45 is low.

WBC esterase 1+ negative (it doesn't say if it's high or low, but it's marked)

Does anyone know the meaning of these values and what can I recommend her?

According to the doctor everything is ok, but in my opinion if something is higher or lower than normal is not so ok and it's better to correct it as soon as possible.

Thank you,

Rena
