Hello Aretha84 and thank you for posting about your daughter.

Since you have such concerns about her Red Blood Cell Count, I would encourage you to take her to a different doctor or hospital for a second opinion. I would take any lab results with you.

Please let us know how you're both doing,

Byroney
