About Paul Charest
Expertise
Any questions that have to do with hematology. Explaining laboratory tests including :coagulation (PT/aPTT), CBC, differential, ESR, and flow cytometry (leukemia/lymphoma)also including the theory behind them. Hemoglobinopathies, leukemia, lymphoma, hemostasis, hematopoiesis, and cellular morphology are a few of the topics that I teach and practice.
I also have experience with immunohematology, otherwise known as blood banking. Feel free to ask about blood types, blood groups, the type and crossmatch, transfusions, antibody identification, DAT, elutions as well as absorptions
I have also worked in a parasitology lab, as well as taught the subject as well. So feel free to ask about helminths (cestodes, trematodes, and nematodes), protozoan parasites, sporozoan etc.
Lastly, I teach a course in clinical mycology where we grow and identify yeasts and moulds.
Experience
I have worked in a hematology lab, flow-cytometry lab, blood bank, and microbiology lab. I am also an instructor at Northeastern University part-time

Subject: Internal bleeding
Question
Hi Paul,
Is it possible to have an internal bleeding for more than 11 yrs. Could you plz tell me about the tests to diagnose Internal Bleeding. How to stop internal bleeding????
Answer
Hello there,
In this world, anything is possible. Blood loss through the gastrointestinal tract is the most common reason for chronic blood loss, there are also a variety of reasons for this to occur. A stool occult blood test should do the trick. If the test comes back positive, the next step is to find out where it is coming from and what is causing it.
Paul
