Understanding Your Blood Test Results: A Doctor's Explanation


Question

Blood Work
I have been experiencing some od symptoms and my Dr. is very busy.  Attached is my last blood test results and I'm worried he could possibly be missing something.  Can you please explain these results more for me please?  Thank you so much!

Answer
this test is probably normal.... the white blood count is a little high, but that has to be taken in context.... if there is a suspected infection, it may indicate that.  But it is pretty close to normal.

The hemoglobin is a little high.... it is commonly elevated in smokers and overweight people.  But again, it is so close to normal, that I would not over react to it.

So basically, this is normal.
