Brief Answer:
No anemia.
Detailed Answer:
Hello and thanks for using HCM.
I have read your question and understand your concerns.
I examined the reports you uploaded too.
Both, RBC count and hemoglobin level are within normal ranges, so, it is not anemia that is causing your symptoms.
Since you refer that your symptoms start after you stand from a sitting position, orthostatic (postural) hypotension, or lowering of blood pressure after you stand, should be considered as a possible condition.
It is necessary to measure your blood pressure in laying, sitting and standing position.
Values should be referred to your primary care Doctor.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care.
