I cant get hold of my PCP.  Office is not returning my calls.  Being 2 weeks. My blood test showed that my hematocrit is high (45.5) and my MCHC is low (31.9) I had to go to a health food store to get some  answer and got some supplement since my Dr did not care. What is the relationship between Hematocrit and MCHC?Thank you and have a nice dayAAAAA
Hi ! To answer your query hematocrit is the measurement of the percentage of red blood cells in whole blood. It is an important determinant of anemia.MHC (Mean Corpuscular Hemoglobin Concentration) measures the average concentration of hemoglobin in red blood cells. It is most valuable in evaluating therapy for anemia. Low MCHC means that a unit of packed R.B.C.s contain less hemoglobin than normal and a high MCHC means that there is more hemoglobin in a unit of R.B.C.s. Decreased levels may indicate iron deficiency, blood loss, B6 deficiency, or thalassemia. Hope I have answered your question
