Regarding RBC and haemoglobin

[ansh007]

Today I went for CBC blood test. In the Blood test report i saw, my Haemoglobin is 15.7 %, RBC is 5.94 g/dl, WBC is 7 . HCT is 50.4. So is there anything to worry from my report? How can I control RBC is blood? What things I need to do

Hello, if your physician did not want to discuss the results with you, that more than likely means that the results are fine, I would not worry about it.  All labs have sort of different value ranges by the way.

I'd say stop worrying about it for now!  Stress can make things worse for you overall.

On the report they say,  the values are slightly above the normal value. But when I have searched over Internet,  they say my values are between the normal range. So is it a reason to worry or will i make a test in another pathology?  Give me advice what to do?

I'd say they were within normal limits on all counts, since you're a male!  But it also depends on the equipment used.  Did the print out tell you that you had highs or lows?  Occasionally a repeat test is done to check out anything that was reported as abnormal.  RBC's are still within normal ranges from all the machines I have seen reports on, but on the low side of normal.  They are produced by the kidneys, and so if you have any type of chronic kidney issue, it could be related to that.  I would see about getting a repeat done, since blood results can vary based on medicines taken, activity levels, stress, etc.
