She is anemic probably due to Iron deficiency , and needs lab workup to find the cause and treatment accordingly.

Hi ! this report shows low HB with low MCV most likely represents iron deficiency anemia. its may be due to nutritional deficiencies but as your mother is 60 yrs so needs to R/o other causes as In this age it may be due to blood loss she need further evaluation and lab test.in this age it's a matter of concern.

Thanks for sharing ur concern. Yes dear these are of concern as her Hb is low especially at this age. She can be facing problems like shortness of breath, suffocation, swelling, chest pain or palpitations. It’s important to know more about her diet and medications is she is taking any to check for the causes of her anaemia and then also treat it. Hope this helps
