Hello doctor, I am a 42-year old male weighing 92kg. I work from home but physically active. I walk 45 minutes a day five times a week and play table tennis for one hour three times a week. I did a complete body test last week and RBC count came as 5.8H, MCV 80.7L and MCH 26.8L and HDL 35L. Should I visit a cardiologist or any specific doctor?

Ans: These readings are slightly deranged but not very worrying. HLD is slightly lower but it is important to know what are the levels of LDL and triglycerides.

Please discuss with a family physician or GP and discuss further.
