Know more about this test
The Red Blood Cell Count test, often done as a part of a complete blood count (CBC) test, measures the number of red blood cells (RBCs) in the blood sample. This test is a key indicator of anemia and other conditions affecting RBC count, such as kidney and bone marrow disorders, and is widely available at an affordable price with Tata 1mg labs in Howrah. An abnormal RBC count can indicate various health issues such as bone marrow disorders, blood loss, or kidney disease.
Your doctor may suggest the Red Blood Cell Count test if you are experiencing symptoms such as fatigue, weakness, shortness of breath, pale skin, etc. No fasting is required for this test. You can eat and drink normally as per your routine.
