Good for you, Chirley.
This is an example of why it's important for patients to pay attention to their own counts. Sometimes you just have a feeling that the results aren't right because they are way out of line with previous tests. Some patients can even predict their red cell count by how they feel.
A phlebotomist or lab technician won't know what your counts are "supposed to be" so you have to be confident enough to speak up when you think something is wrong.
