Homozygous Hb E likely fully explains your CBC which has a pretty low MCV (ie your cells are small) but otherwise is normal. This in and of itself should not cause any real problems, though as noted there could be implications if you plan on having children. The most common scenario would be if a child inherits HbE from you and a beta thalassemia mutation from mom, which could result in the child having a form of thalassemia.A single alpha thalassemia gene deletion = you have 3 out of 4 functioning alpha hemoglobin chains. This also has no real significance in and of itself - people who have this and nothing else (including no HbE) would have totally normal labs. Again, your MCV is low because of the HbE and not the single alpha deletion.Hope htis helps.
