Hello! I have my breast augmentation surgery scheduled for the 9th of November and naturally, I'm very excited! I just got my blood test results today though, and some of the results were a little low with WBC at 4.1 and Hct at 36 while PTT was 15.9 sec. Should I be concerned, or is this within the norm? My cycle ended this morning, and I had the tests done this afternoon, so not sure if that impacts it. It is my first surgery, so am a bit nervous about these things! Thanks in advance!
