Do high hemoglobin and hematocrit indicate polycythemia?

Hello,

Welcome to the icliniq.com.

Hereby I am giving opinion regarding your case. First, let me know do you have any stress or anxiety issues? As severe stress can lead to hyperventilation and dizziness. Stress can change bowel habits as well and it can lead to headaches as well.

If stress is present consult a psychiatrist for counseling and anti-anxiety drugs. If stress is not present, then the causes for weakness are overexertion, lack of exercise, depression, kidney problems (for that urea, creatinine investigation done), myositis, etc. As for three weeks you are not improving you can be investigated with EMG (electromyography), EKG (electrocardiography) investigation for further workup.

Answers to your questions are as follows:

I do not think this blood report is abnormal. It should be repeated as two weeks passed. In stroke vision problem, half part weakness, slurred speech like problem present. So the stroke chance is very less. But EKG investigation can be done here as dizziness present since many times.

Your Hb and HCT are not much high that needs immediate concern. I do not think it is polycythemia vera case. Repeat CBC to check HCT and RBC value now. For weakness rule out the above causes

No néed of taking any blood thinner. Include green leafy vegetables and fruits more in your diet.
