Hi!
Welcome to HCM!
Your doctor has told you that you have low blood counts.
Low blood counts can have many causes, including vitamin deficiencies, bleeding, and rare bone marrow diseases .
If your blood tests are showing low blood cell counts then it is essential to see which of your blood cells are Low whether it is low red blood cell count, Low white blood cell count, Low platelet count or lowering of all 3 cell lines that is pancytopenia.
Each of these cell type have a different function in body and their lowering and amount of lowering both are very important to find out the cause.
As for low HDL Strategies for raising HDL-C levels can
include various lifestyle and drug therapies, which should
be tailored to individual patients.
Among lifestyle interventions for raising HDL-C levels,
aerobic exercise is probably the most important.. Moderate daily
alcohol consumption raises HDL-C levels by 5% to 10%.
can take vitamin supplements especially having Niacin.
hope this will help you!

hello,
Thanks for posting to HCM,
Beef liver. Beef liver is rich in iron and all the B vitamins.
Eat foods rich in vitamin C at the same time that you eat whole grains, spinach, and legumes. This will increase absorption of the iron in these foods.
If you drink coffee or tea, do so between meals rather than with meals; caffeine in beverages reduces iron absorption.
take folic acid ,
