hi,
somatocytes are red blood cells of a different shape. don't worry for that. howevere, if you are having progressive anemia, it needs work up. as you have not mentioned the report in detail, its hard to tell whethere your anemia qualify a set of investigation or not. going by your doctors assurance, i can say you-- just be on follow up.
