Does Prolonged Use Of Triphala Cause Macrocytosis?

I have been taking the herb, Tripala for about 2 1/2 years. Started taking due to severe gas pains. It has helped but wonder when I was diagnosed with Macrocytosis if it had any bearing? I went to urgent care for pain in arm, chest and neck and he found the Marcrocytosis. I try and live a clean life, no alcohol or tobacco and I am not overwieght and try to eat healthy. Would like some imput cause I can t get to hemotologist for 2 weeks
