they took my weight and i have lost 5 lbs in the last 2 months...which makes me weigh 95 at the height of 5"2 and 24 years old.The whole reason i went to the doc is b/c i thought i had another UTI which i do and my doctor said my red blood cell count is at a 5. where should my RBC count be at and how can i get it back where it needs to be?i've been really low on energy and very sleepy is that causes of the red blood cell count being so low? or should i just call my doctor back?

5 is normal (they were talking in millions); did they tell you otherwise or did you just assume it's low? Here's a link that will explain your RBC count to you:

If you still have questions, give them a call back.
