Hi, Definitely reports are not OK. We call this condition as polycythemia. It needs complete evaluation with detailed history (including history of smoking), examination and some laboratory tests (such as S. Erythropoietin level).
Hi lybrate-user, Anemia needs a complete evaluation to know its cause. Several disorders can cause anemia. Iron supplements will help only if anemia is due to iron deficiency.
Hi lybrate-user, You may do Iron profile and Hemoglobin HPLC. If Ferritin or Transferrin saturation is low, it is iron deficiency. If Hb A2 on HPLC is more than 3.5%, it is beta thalassemia trait.
If anemia is secondary to iron deficiency, Hb will rise. Usual rise is 1gm per week, if adequate dose is given.
Hi lybrate-user, If you can tolerate Iron pills, it is better to take them for 2 months and stop. No need to repeat ferritin levels after that.
