Wife got some blood work done recently, and three results (MCH, MCV, RDW) were slightly out of range and doctors started talking about anemia. I’ve heard the word plenty of times, but it’s never really explained or talked about. What is it, how serious is it, how common is it, etc?
In: Biology
Iron deficiency. You would need more meat, liver, spinach, or other iron rich foods, plus iron supplements depending on how bad it is, in order to fix it.
Anemia itself might be a symptom of something else, so listen to your doctor’s recommendations and follow them
