Hi my name is Dr Jagat Shah ( M.D. Homoeopathy). HB above 18.5 in male is know as polycythemia which is blood disorder. If you have not evaluated the reason of it and its been there for long period of time then definitely you required to consult once to doctor. Please contact Total Health Care for further assistance.
