What Does WBC-6.9,RBC-3.71 And Hemoglobin Test Level-106 G/dL?

Hello, I'm a female teacher, 40 years old. I just got my hemoglobin test result which is 106 g/dL, hematocrit is 0.32, white blood cell 6.9, red blood cell is 3.71. I'm experiencing dizzines and I'm having difficulty in concentration. What type of anemia am I suffering?

Hi,
Thanks for asking.
Based on your query, my opinion is as follows.
1. You are having anemia. This is causing dizziness and fatigue resulting in difficulty in concentration.
2. Complete red cell indices or peripheral smear is necessary to identify the morphological type and the cause of anemia. Based on RBC count and hemoglobin level it appears to be macrocytic anemia.
3. Take Vit B12 and folic acid supplements and also increase in diet through fish, egg, pulses and green leafy vegetables. It should improve soon. A reticulocyte count test after 15 days can show if its improving.
Hope it helps.
Any further queries, happy to help again.
