When Lucky became sick the first step in his diagnosis was to run a CBC. Afterwards, I started hearing terms such as WBC, RBC, Thrombocytes, Reticulocytes, PCV or hemacrit and I not only needed to know what they meant but what is normal, what is low and when a transfusion may be needed. This article is a great resource that answers those questions and much more. I've included this article in Lucky's Pages here on the blog so you'll always have quick access to it.
