Since you have normal blood tests and high hemoglobin (high borderline )then you have a high hemoglobin count ,a high hemoglobin count indicates an above-average concentration of the oxygen-carrying protein hemoglobin in your blood. Hemoglobin is the main component of red blood cells. Hemoglobin count - also referred to as hemoglobin level - indicates your blood's oxygen-carrying capacity.
A high hemoglobin count is somewhat different from a high red blood cell count, because each cell may not have the same amount of hemoglobin proteins.
Therefore, you could have a high hemoglobin count even if your red blood cell count falls within the normal range.
The threshold for a high hemoglobin count is slightly different from one medical practice to another. It's generally defined as more than 17.5 grams (g) of hemoglobin per deciliter (dL) of blood for men and 15.5 g/dL for women. In children, the definition of a high hemoglobin count varies with age and sex.
causes might be :
-low blood oxygen levels due to poor heart or lung function.
- bone marrow dysfunction that results in increased production of red blood cells.
-if you live in high areas in the mountain because a limited oxygen supply in higher altitudes.
-You smoke.
-drugs or hormones, most commonly erythropoietin (EPO), that stimulate red blood cell production.
- getting injections to enhance athletic performance can cause a high hemoglobin count.
There are other medical conditions can be associated with haemoglobin high count but will be accompanied with other blood levels abnormalities not your case.
The important question why had you been for a blood test do you have any symptoms .
depending on the symptoms and the results you may need or may not need treatment
sometimes the patient is advised to donate blood every 3 months if the symptoms are mild related to headaches and high blood pressure .
