Overview

About Complete Blood Count (CBC)

A Complete Blood Count gives your doctor a full picture of your blood in one sitting: red cells, white cells and platelets, along with derived values like hematocrit and MCV. It is usually the first test ordered when you feel unusually tired, notice frequent infections, or have unexplained bruising.

At City Care Lab, your CBC sample is run on an automated hematology analyzer, so counts come back precise and consistent every time. What most patients ask us before a CBC is whether they need to prepare specially, and the honest answer is no, you can eat and drink normally beforehand.

We flag any values outside the standard range clearly on your report, so your doctor can act on them quickly whether that means starting iron supplements, checking for infection, or monitoring a chronic condition.

What's Included

Hemoglobin & RBC Count

Measures how well your blood carries oxygen and screens for anemia.
Low values often point to iron deficiency or blood loss.

White Blood Cell Count

Shows how your immune system is responding to infection or inflammation.
A raised count usually suggests your body is fighting something off.

Platelet Count

Checks your blood’s clotting ability.
Low platelets need follow up, especially with dengue or bleeding symptoms.

Hematocrit & Indices (MCV, MCH, MCHC)

Describe the size and hemoglobin content of your red cells.
Helps classify the type of anemia if one is present.

How to Prepare

  • No fasting required. Eat and drink normally. You can book a CBC at any time of day.
  • Stay hydrated, since dehydration can artificially concentrate your results.
  • Mention your medicines. Steroids, chemotherapy drugs and some antibiotics affect blood counts.
  • Mention recent illness, since a CBC taken during or just after an infection can look different.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does a CBC test check for?

A CBC checks your red cells, white cells and platelets in a single blood draw. It is a broad screening test that can flag anemia, infection, inflammation or clotting problems.
No fasting is needed for a CBC. You can have breakfast or tea as usual before coming in, or before our phlebotomist arrives at your home.
Your CBC report is ready the same day, usually within a few hours, and sent straight to your phone once it is done.
A low hemoglobin usually points to anemia, often from iron deficiency, though your doctor will confirm the cause based on your full CBC pattern and history.
A CBC alone cannot confirm dengue, but a falling platelet count alongside symptoms like fever is a strong clue, and your doctor may pair it with a dengue-specific test.
Yes, our certified phlebotomist can collect your CBC sample at home anywhere in Gujranwala, Sialkot or Daska, which is especially convenient for elderly family members or young children.
