I'm not entirely sure which of these is the best outcome!
Oh dear.

There are two normally incompatible aspects to my blood. My haemotologist could not explain the contradiction and eventually decided that if I was still running up mountains at my age it obviously wasn't a problem, I was an outlier on the "normal" scales and he would stop worrying. I didn't know there might be an issue so I never had!

Anyway, who wants to be boring old normal/ average?
