RBC Count

A Red Blood Cell (RBC) Count test is a simple blood test, where the number of red blood cells is measured. The RBCs contain hemoglobin, responsible for carrying oxygen to body tissues. A healthy number of RBCs ensures that adequate oxygen is received for proper functioning.

An RBC count test is done for the following symptoms:

  • Fatigue
  • Headaches
  • High Heart Rate
  • Shortness of breath
  • Joint Pain
  • Dizziness
  • Disturbed sleep

A high or low count of RBC can adversely affect your health and cause diseases. It leads to discoloration of the skin and problems in breathing.

As this test is a simple blood test, no prior preparations are required.
