I am very interested in your retic count! Good luck with your upcoming appointment and I hope you get some answers. Your last counts that you posted look great.

I am wondering if some retics are better than others. My retic count right now is only 2.3 but my HGB is behaving exactly like when my retic count was 48. It makes no sense unless some retics are strong and some die before maturing into RBCs. I'm wondering if maybe the count doesn't tell the full story.

Just a thought - maybe you can ask your hematologist if they can tell if you have better retics, thus not affecting your counts much? I would ask mine but I don't see her again until Feb.
