Hello, please check my report and tell me if everything is okay. What does an increased MPV mean? And why is my RBC count also increased?

High MPV suggests larger, younger platelets, possibly due to inflammation or recovery from platelet loss. High RBC may point to dehydration or early polycythemia. If asymptomatic, recheck CBC after hydration.

Take a COMPLETE BLOOD COUNT (CBC) Test or Take a C-REACTIVE PROTEIN (CRP) - QUANTITATIVE Test
