CBC Showed High RBC And Have History Of Peptic Ulcers. Is This Why I Have Dizziness, Tiredness And Mood Swings?

I have a history of peptic ulcers. A week ago my PCP did a CBC on me and my red blood cell count came back high only by 1 point, but still high. I went to my PCP because I was experiencing a bunch of different things such as, dizziness, moddyness, very tired, really just not myself at all. Can the elevated red blood cell count be from an ulcer?

Hi
thank you for your query
No , high red blood cells are not from ulcer. If you are tabacco smoker high red blood cells is normal.
If not , please consult with your physician for further evaluation.
