    I would advise looking up the British Haematological Guidelines on appropriate values of anything to do with bolood disorders such as anaemia. Also�the Pernicious anaemia society� have lots of accurate information on anaemia and the prevention of complications due to undiagnosed Vitamin B12 deficiency.
