I am not a dr but I am very familiar w/ blood tests and what not bcse I have had PNH, a stem cell trans, follow ups, A LOT of tests, post and pre, etc etc for over 3 yrs. Yes she obv has a confirmed blood disorder. In my opinion, your 1st concern shd be getting her blood counts normal. You don't want a dodgy immune system in a country like India. White cells and red cells are 1/2 of what they shld be. Hemo is not that bad but shld also be higher. MCH and MCV are also both high, which I assume are related to the disease, cell brk down, etc. I'm guessing that the health care system in India is not the same as here in the US where mid class, and or high income ppl on private insurance or gov subsidized ppl get basically the same care. So whether through supplements or meds to encourage cell growth, or another doctor who offers more treatment options would be the 1st order of business.
