An elevated RDW is a higher than normal red blood cell count. This can be brought on by a number of things, most commonly anemia. Your doctor will be able to best advise you on the appropriate course of action to take to get your red blood cells to a normal level.

In medicine, RDW means red cell distribution width. A low RDW means that the erythrocytes or red blood cells are uniform in size.
RDW means "Red blood cell Distribution Width" that takes place with the blood. If one has a low Rdw i means they are anemic.
A low RDW-cv on a hematology test means that there is a very small variation in the size of your red blood cell. Low RDW means that the cells are mostly the same size, while high RDW means the sizes are different.
