I've been struggling with low hemoglobin levels for the past year, but I can't pinpoint what's causing it. Can you help me figure out what's going on?

I'm a bit concerned because my lymphocyte count is at 49 and monocyte count is at 1. Is this within the normal range or should I be worried about any health issues?

I'm a bit worried because my recent blood test showed that I have mild eosinophilia, and my monocytes count is right at the upper limits. Here are some more details: Neutrophils are at 47, lymphocytes are 33, eosinophils are 9, monocytes are 10, and basophils are 1. The absolute counts are 4400 for neutrophils, 3000 for lymphocytes, 900 for eosinophils, and 1000 for monocytes. Also, my platelet count is 269,000. Could you help me understand what this might mean for my health? Should I be concerned about these levels?

I'm a little concerned about my haemoglobin levels. They're at 18.5, and they've been above 18 for over a year now. Is this something I should be worried about, or is it within a normal range? Would really appreciate some advice on this.

A hemoglobin level of 18.5 is higher than the normal range (13.5-17.5 gdL for adult males and 12-16 gdL for adult females), suggesting polycythemia, a condition that may be primary (bone marrow disorder) or secondary (response to chronic hypoxia, testosterone abuse, or other medical conditions); consult a hematologist to rule out underlying causes and discuss potential treatment options, such as phlebotomy or medication.
