I'm 24w and FTM. Yesterday at my prenatal appt. my OB briefly explained I have a small ovarian cyst during my 2nd ultrasound (20 weeks). She didn't seem concern. She explained it's common during pregnancy and it should go away after delivery. If not, then we will discuss more about it.
Labs: Lab results are meaningful only in the context of the person. High MCHC in a healthy person may simply be a problem with the calibration of the machine or reflect that reference ranges are set so that a few percent of healthies fall outside on either end. I'd ignore sed rate / ESR.
Blood work is a very important diagnostic tool that provides vital information about your pet's health. A complete blood count (CBC) is a common blood test used in dogs to measure and evaluate cells that circulate in the blood.The test includes an actual counting of red and white blood cells as well as an analysis of cells viewed on a blood smear. MCHC is an abbreviation for mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration. 2  This is the average percentage of hemoglobin in each red blood cell. 3  A high MCHC indicates that there is too much hemoglobin in the red blood cell, indicating a high iron level since an important component of hemoglobin is iron.
