Rdw/mcv

From my understanding, a reduction in MCV and RDW is good. The higher the MCV is the bigger your red cells are, and 98 is the upper limit of normal. The higher the RDW is, the more variation in size of red cells, which happens when your body is producing abnormally shaped ones. I have been diagnosed with MDS not AA, but also have high MCV and RDW.

What alternative therapies are you on? I am seeing a chinese herbalist, and taking various supplements, too many to list here, but feel free to PM me!
