Abnormal red cells.

Posted by lackingqualityhealthcare @lackingqualityhealthcare, May 6, 2022

A recent blood test showed tear cells +1 elliptocytes+1 macrocytes+1 and spherocytes+1. My red cells are 3.8. My hemaglobin is normal. My hematologist said everything looked fine. I'm a little confused. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the hug, Ed. But I had a wakeup nudge this morning from @arla that I missed the fact the monitor reading was reversed. I didn’t catch that because my oximeter display is just opposite of yours! Color me embarrassed!
So your blood oxygen level was at 98% not 83. That was your heart rate.
What was your reading this morning?

I actually realized that earlier, but I didn't when I checked this morning, so will look at the right number tommorow morning. Thank you. Ed
