RDW Count in Thalassemia

2017-01-30 12:57:10
Hi doctors First of all, thanks for all your previous comments and supports. I am in 2nd trimester (15 Week + 6 days) of Primary pregnancy. I had all my tests done. The HB HPLC/Electrophoresis test shows everything normal. But the value for RDW is 15.60% percent in my case. As per the reference value given, the range is 11.50% to 14.50% which is stated as normal. Please suggest me on this

No need to worry about rdw.. If your hb is fine then.. Enjoy pregnancy and don't take stress of investigations... Just follow your gynac advise
