What Does My CBC Blood Test Result Indicate?

Risk for pulmonary embolism and heart disease
Detailed Answer:
Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
MCV is the mean corpuscles volume, suggest the size of your rbc. It is normal.
RDW is the red cell distribution width. It suggest variation in the size of rbcs. It is also almost normal. You should not worry regarding any of them.
MTHFR gene mutation leads to increased the level of homocystein.
Homocystein is the independent risk factor for pulmonary embolism.
Your lp-lp2 is lipoprotein associated phospholipase A2. It is platelet activator. It is also a risk factor for cardiovascular heart disease.
You have multiple risk factors. So you should continue your anticoagulant and blood thinner for life time. You can take warfarin like drugs accordingly.
