I'm a bit worried about my recent CBC screening results. My Hemoglobin is at 17.5, PCV is 53.2, and RBC is 6.1. Plus, my Vitamin B12 level is 1338, and Vitamin D is 36.58. About a month ago, my doctor gave me Bonicor Capsules and Neurobion Forte injections. I don't smoke and I make sure to drink 4 liters of water every day. Should I be concerned about these numbers? Could this be something serious?

"In your CBC screening results, your Hemoglobin level of 17.5, PCV of 53.2, and RBC count of 6.1 are slightly elevated, which could indicate conditions like polycythemia. Your Vitamin B12 level of 1338 is within normal range, and your Vitamin D level of 36.58 is slightly low. The medications you mentioned, Bonicor Capsules and Neurobion Forte injection, are commonly prescribed for conditions like anemia and vitamin deficiencies. Since you are a non-smoker and drink an adequate amount of water daily, your elevated blood counts may need further evaluation to rule out any underlying causes. I would recommend discussing these results with your doctor for further assessment and management."
