View allI've been dealing with a vitamin B12 deficiency for a couple of months and started getting B12 injections weekly for six weeks. I just got my levels checked again, and now they're over 2000. Is this normal, or should I be worried? Also, I have some other blood work results like hemoglobin at 15, platelets at 346, and WBC at 7800. I'm curious if these are all interconnected somehow. What's going on with my blood tests?

I'm a bit concerned after getting my blood test results. My hemoglobin level showed up at 17.7, which I've read could mean I have polycythemia. Do you think I should see a specialist about this? And if so, what kind of specialist would be the right one to get in touch with? I'm also curious about what might be causing this condition.
A hemoglobin level of 17.7 is indeed high and may indicate polycythemia, a condition that requires medical attention; it's essential to consult a specialist, specifically a hematologist (blood disorder specialist), to confirm the diagnosis, rule out underlying causes such as chronic hypoxia, sleep apnea, or kidney tumors, and develop a treatment plan to prevent potential complications like blood clots and strokes.
