A member asked:

What does a high protein level in my blood count mean?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Unclear question: All laboratory results need to be interpreted in the clinical context and the doctor who ordered the tests is usually in the best position to do that. Having said that, Blood count and protein are different tests. It would have been helpful to have the actual values of the test results.
