But My son looks pale and hence we took a Blood test today to see the Hb reduced to 6.4 but Reticulocyte count is 3.5
We have asked for the doctor appointment and we may meet him on coming thursday (29th Jan).
Is this expected that a sudden raise in Reticulocyte count? Or it indicated any problem?
If it is Genetic PRCA, Reticulocyte count would not increase right?

See my email reply. Try calling your doctor. I always got transfusions when my Hg fell below 8.0.
