Hello,
Thankyou for approaching DoctorSpring with your query. ,
Please can you let me know your hemoglobin levels.
Do you have any peripheral smear report study done earlier? As per attached reports, I suspect smoking to be a cause for the present elevated levels. I would like to know how many years have you smoked and type of smoke and how many did you smoke per day all these years.
However, I would like to have a complete blood work investigation done before commenting on the complaints. Kindly forward/upload all the blood work and investigations that you have done so that I can guide you better.
Please reply as a follow up.
Regards

LAP SCORE 30 - 90 228
General Information
Dear. ,
I see all your investigations normal except for mildly elevated neutrophil counts and a correspondingly elevated LAP which may be due to mild / symptomatic / asymptomatic infections most commonly. These may happen and values change now and then as body immunity fights against the infection. Please let me if you have any specific symptoms or clinical problems so as to ascertain the reason for such mild elevations.
Hope this clears your query.
Kind regards
