It is surely unnatural to have 17.5 hb. It could be that the blood had got thickened causing it. Or maybe any other systemic disorder.
Next Steps
post the HB report. To evaluate and correlate with other values like pcv.
Health Tips
raised hb is generally not good for heart. and a person with raised hb is often maintained out of danger by regular blood donation.
