can increased hematocrit values indicate polycythemia
hello your hemoglobin level and red blood cells count are slight high the hematocrit level is within limit so you can have secondary polycythemia case drink lots of water at least 3 liter per day I suggest you investigate with serum ego estimation ekg and chest ray investigation for further work up your physical examination also should be done if all reports and physical evaluation is within limit then you may need not worry about that
