Bleeding and Clotting Disorders |
Low red and white cells08/09/2008 10:35AM |
What can be the causes for low red cell and white cell counts. Both values were were just below the normal ranges, but they have been consistently below for 6 months. Hem was low also. Thanks for your help.
There are many reasons why you could have a low white count and red cell count, but it is difficult to say very much without actually seeing the blood work and being able to interview and examine you. I would suggest that you ask your physician who ordered the test these same questions to help answer your questions.
