High hemoglobin and RBC is typical in mild dehydration. More fluids usually

does the trick in lowering both.

, this is interesting. My son has high hemoglobin, too, (147,

ref. range 110-145) but his ferritin was only 15. He's also a low-

copper kid, which also doesn't make sense. Do you know what this

could possibly mean?

On the thyroid forum the advice was to start him on iron supplements

given his ferritin level, but of course that can be a tricky one. He

also won't eat most of the good dietary sources.
