I'm a bit concerned about having high red blood cell counts in my CBC tests. Could you help me understand what might be causing this and what I could do about it?

I'm looking over my CBC blood test results and I'm a bit worried. My PDW is at 17.1, and I've noticed my WBC count is 11.4, while the normal range they provided is between 4 to 9. Also, my HCT level is 41.8 but the normal ratio is 34 to 38. Could you help me understand what these numbers might mean? I'm not sure if these are something to be concerned about. Would appreciate any advice or suggestion you could give!

15 years old, you're likely still growing. _Expected Growth_ 1. _Boys_: Typically grow 2-3 inches (5-7.5 cm) per year between 13-18 years old. 2. _Girls_: Usually grow 1-2 inches (2.5-5 cm) per year between 11-16 years old. _Predicted Height Increase_ Assuming you're a boy, you can expect to grow around 2-4 inches (5-10 cm) in the next 2-3 years. As a girl, you might grow around 1-2 inches (2.5-5 cm) in the next year or two. _Projecting Your Height_ Based on your current height (5.5 feet or 165.1 cm), here are some possible projected heights: - Boy: 5.9-6.1 feet (179.8-185.4 cm) - Girl: 5.6-5.8 feet (170.2-176.8 cm)

I'm a bit confused about my recent blood test results. My RBC count came out to be 5.88 million per cubic millimeter, and the report states the normal max range is 5.6 millioncu mm. But when I looked it up online, I found that for men, the max range can be up to 6.1 millioncu mm. I'm trying to figure out which range is correctshould I be worried that mine is slightly above the report's limit, or is it actually within the normal range according to other sources?

kk it's normal
