While I was having blood test recently, I noticed also the nurse that the flow into the test tube was slow also thick and very dark brown in clolour, I wonder what is the problem or any defficiency?I know currently Ferritin is quite low: 12 : normal is (30 - 400 )Thank youGeorge
HI, actually blood becomes thick and sluggish in the case of polycythemia where red blood cell count IG increased well above its normal value. But it may be your subjective observation, I would suggest you to go for some test like red blood cell count estimation, hemoglobin estimation, total and differential leukocyte count, ESR, MTV, MHC, MCH, platelets count, serum ferritin, total iron binding capacity, reticulocyte count and meet a physician with the test report.I hope this will wash out all your confusion.
