[QUOTE="Nelson Vergel, post: 35338, member: 3"] Nosupermodel Your lipids are high but I am sure that is diet related. Your reticulocyte count is high (and red blood cells slightly low). Your hematocrit is not horrible but on the low side. Reticulocytes are newly produced, relatively immature red blood cells. They form and mature in the [URL="https://labtestsonline.org/glossary/bone-marrow"]bone marrow[/URL] before being released into the blood. A high reticulocyte count with low RBCs, low hemoglobin, and low hematocrit (anemia) may indicate conditions such as: Bleeding: If an individual bleeds (hemorrhage), then the number of reticulocytes will rise a few days later in an attempt to compensate for the red cell loss. If someone has chronic blood loss, then the number of reticulocytes will stay at an increased level as the marrow tries to keep up with the demand for new RBCs (although it may not be high if the blood loss leads to iron deficiency). Hemolytic anemia: In this condition, anemia is caused by increased destruction of RBCs. The bone marrow increases RBC production to compensate, resulting in a high reticulocyte count. Ref: [url]https://labtestsonline.org/understanding/analytes/reticulocyte/tab/test/[/url] Are you taking aspirin or a blood thinner ? Hopefully the TRT and B-12 will help with RBC's and reticulocyte count. Are you experiencing joint pain? [/QUOTE]
