My cbc shows high rbc (5.28mil/mcl) and high rdw-cv (15.6%) is this bad? i just had breast cancer/mastectomy 2 months ago so worried.

High RDW-CV: High RDW and low MCV can be a predictor of certain types of cancer. Best is to discuss your results with your oncologist for a more detailed explanation.
