hematocrit level

[Krissibare]

My doctor has done blood work on me twixe,in,the past two weeks and the first time my hematocrit was a 7 and they told me it was really concerning and today they said my hematocrit is now a 3. They insist I see a gastroenologist tomorrow and set up an emergency appt for me but what does this low hematocrit mean exactly ??? Should i be overly concerned???
