Brief Answer:
Not likely a concern...

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

I went through the reports diligently. From what I notice yes her red blood count is above normal; however the PCV (hematocrit) is not normal range. Her hemoglobin value seems normal. Therefore I will not be overly worried about red blood count or the marginal abnormalities with MCH and MCHC.

Her total Leukocyte count (WBC count) is normal; there is no abnormality noticed. Lymphocyte count seems borderline raised. It sometimes could be a response of a past viral infection. That being said, they are not significant either.

You did not however specify about Hba1c value which is slightly towards abnormal value as well as raised triglyceride level. Now, if she is not on treatment for these two disturbance, I would consider visiting a physician nearby to start lipid lowering drugs and diabetes management.

Hope this helped. Let me know if you need clarifications.
