Red Blood Cells
I have just recieved my blood test results and my RBC are slightly higher beyond the norm range, they are at 5.7 while the upper limit of the norm range is - 5.6
What does it mean ?
Should I do anything about it ?
I see that this is the result in all the 4 blood test results that I did since sep-2009.
Thank you,
Jack

An RBC of 5.7 mill/ul/cu mm would not be considered high at many labs. It is in the high part of normal. If RBC"s are truly high ,no-one here would be able to tell you why. It can be caused by a multitude of conditions,and a doctor would have to do a full clinical history and other blood tests to diagnose why.
If your doc is not concerned after it being at this level in 4 tests done in the last 2 years,I doubt you have anything to worry about either
Good luck..Will
