Hello,

Anisocytosis is when there is an increased variation in red blood cells sizes.
Poikilocytosis is the medical term for having abnormally shaped red blood cells in your blood.
Anemia is the most common blood disorder in shaped and in red blood cells sizes.
The abnormal red blood cell size observed in anisocytosis can be caused by several different conditions.
These include iron deficiency anemia, hemolytic anemia, sickle cell anemia, and megaloblastic anemia.
Some chronic conditions also increase the risk, such as autoimmune diseases, kidney disease, liver disease, thyroid disease.
Calcium is 8 is little bit low. TOTAL THYROXINE (T4) C.L.I.A 13.2 is considered normal range.
A level of 25-OH VITAMIN D (TOTAL) 21 nanograms/milliliter is considered normal range.
There are many types of anemia. All are very different in their causes and treatments.
