If the test reveals that your haemoglobin level is lower than normal, it means you have anaemia. Anaemia can have many different causes, including vitamin deficiencies, bleeding and chronic diseases.

Creatinine is a chemical waste product that's produced by your muscle metabolism and to a smaller extent by eating meat. Healthy kidneys filter creatinine and other waste products from your blood.
