Thanks You so much for your response and insight I really appreciate it . He has been taking iron for the last 2 yrs on and off up until the hematologist saw him in dec as he was unable to maintain a decent hb without it but that was under the direction and supervision of the pediatrician. The hematologist at the time felt that low retic was related to a virus at the time.
I am sorry my original post is hard to follow but what i meant was he has just had the CBC completed that the hematologist had recomended 6 months after our visit and the results were
Retic 19 (40-80)
Hb 130 great for him
Rdw hi

So he had the two low counts within three weeks of each other and his hb dropped from 125 to 116 was put back on iron had good results and then taken off iron and now 6 months later has that low retic and hi rdw. We don't see the hematologist again and I haven't heard from the pediatrician about these recent results I'm just wondering is I should be concerned about it
