DEAR USER,
THANKS FOR CONSULTING WITH HCM

YOU HAVENT MENTIONED YOUR HEMOGLOBIN REPORTS AND PLATELET REPORTS.

BUT SEEING AT MCV, MCH AND MCHC IT APPEARS MORE AS A IRON DEFICIENCY ANEMIA

HOWEVER IF PLATELET ARE ALSO LOW IT MAY GO IN FAVOUR OF PANCYTOPENIA

I SUGGEST YOU TO SEND THE COMPLETE BLOOD PICTURE ALONG WITH THE PERIPHERAL BLOOD SMEAR AND S. FERRITIN

THAT WILL HELP IN PIN POINTING THE DIAGNOSIS
HOPE I ANSWERED YOUR QUERY. YOU CAN MESSAGE ME FOR ANY FURTHER CONCERNS
I find this answer helpful
