A member asked:

Why would i have low b12, high rbc and high platelets? why does my doctors test results say high on them but google has many different ranges for what high is? my labs have shown them as high for years but no one has ever said anything?

2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers

Each lab has it's own "range" of high/low based on the equipment they use and other factors. There will be some similarity similarity in the expected values. You will need to ask the doc who interpreted your tests what this issue means for you. Google is a good way to find a training video or gas station. Health information, not so much.

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. Talk to the doctor who ordered the tests. Having said that,it would have helped had you provided the actual numbers, rather than high and low. Wish you good health!
