Blood Report Evaluation
My HB is 15.7, RBC is 5.43 mil/μL, MCV is 92.3 fL, MCH is 28.9 pg, Platlet Count is 203 thou/μL and Red Cell distribution width is 13.7%. All are normal as per lab range.
But I have a high Hematocrit of 50.1% (Lab range 40-50) and MCHC is low 31.3 g/dL(Lab range 31.5-34.5). Also WBC count is high 10.65 thou/μL(Lab range 4-10).
What is the reason for all this and how
can I improve all this?
