What Are The Safe Levels For RBC And Albumin?

My last two blood tests over the last few months have come back with a RBC distribution of 14.8, a little high. Should I be concerned? My albumin was also a little off at 3.2. I am 59, 5'7", 184 lbs., never exercise, but am an active church minister. I take daily 1 Oscal w.D, 1 Vit.E 400iu, 1 multi vit. w. 100% of the basic stuff, premarin, and 25mg or mcg? (a very small dose, peach colored pill) synthroid. I always test as being a little undermedicated for the hypothyroid condition, but I can't tolerate more syntrhoid, and I couldn't tolerate any of the synthroid alternatives.. Back to my orig. question : What about the RBC and the albumin? Should I be alarmed? CRP is 1.1, also a little high.

Hi, dear.
I have gone through your question.
I can understand your concern.
Your rbc distribution id normal. No need to worry. Your albumin is slightly low but not a cause of big worry. If you develop oedema or some sign then its of alarming. Only slight decrease is not alarming. Still you should take high protein diet.
Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer.
Thanks for using health care magic.
Wish you a very good health.
