Lab results, pain in legs/feet
So while undergoing some blood tests because of the following symptoms upon waking, pain and stiffness in joints of legs and bones and ligaments of the foot(both feet.) I have has this symptom for about 2 months. And I also have my sleeeping improved as i am actually getting rest and falling asleep somewhat earlier, in which i find the less i sleep, the sleep I need, but quality of sleep increases a lot.
So waking up between 5am and 6am has been good, I have enough energy and feel decent.
But on to the lab results, the following results stood out and were abnormal. My red blood cell which is supposed to be between 4.60 and 6.20 was 4.14.
My hemoglobin was supposed to be between 14and 18 was 12.5.
Finally my hematocrit % was supposed to be between 39 and 51 was 36.1%.
Those values are off the doctor said to wait a month and then test again.
My bilrubin was right on the upper edge at 1.3. It goes from .1 to 1.3.
One more note, Even at bilrubin at that level I did not have jaundice or something similar. I did however have xanthopsia, mostly upon waking in the morning. My eyesight had a tinge of yellow when looking at something which was clearly white beforr. This symp did fade as the day went on, but was more there upon waking.
