Hb 18 is not normal. One possibility could be that during the time of sampling you were dehydrated in which case your hb will appear falsely high in report. Other thing we need to rule out polycythemia Vera. Patients who have long standing breathing problems too may have high hb.
Next Steps
Kindly consult a hematologist. And for your breathing problem consult a pulmonologist.
