Hi Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concern.
As per your reports you have MCV and MCH is low & RBC count is high. you would be advised to do tests to evaluate any haemoglobinopathy or thalessemia. However these values can also be in iron deficency anemia also. Iron deficiency anemia is also common in middle age woman.

Meanwhile you could take foods high in iron such as spinach, green leafy vegetables, peas etc.

Don't worry you would be fine
Get well soon
