First, it depends on whether you're a man or woman (assuming you're not a child-children have a naturally lower count) and the reason for the low counts. Don't know about the platelet count, but a hemoglobin count of 9 and hematocrit of 31 would indicate moderate anemia in a woman and more severe anemia in a man. I know Breast cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy are generally given a blood infusion at a HGB count of 8 or lower. Anemia can have many causes, from the scary stuff to simple nutritional deficiency or over-hydration. Since you must have gotten these results from a doctor, why not ask him or her yourself and get a better answer based on your particular situation?
