bloods back low fhgb? receptionist doesnt know what it means any help?

[ksilme]

Hey all, doc finally took notice, I have very long cycles, this one was nearly 8 weeks, sent me for bloods, rang for results today, everything is normal such as testosterone, glucose, thyroid but receptionist said fhgb was too low and doc would phone me on Tuesday to talk to me about it. Only problem is she didnt know what it stands for thus have no idea what this might mean, does anyone know what fhgb stands for and what it tests for and what it means when it is too low xxx

hgb is Hemoglobin

Hemoglobin is a protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen. A blood test can tell how much hemoglobin you have in your blood.
