Hi Anjana,
Thanks once again for replying so promptly. My
father's CBC which was done on Monday shows:
WBC 2.9
RBC 2.19
MCH 20.6
HGB 6.6
Sorry for replying late and not giving the above
details in last mail.
I am once again hopeful that you will reply as soon as
possible and will help me.
Bye.
Amit.
