Blood test

I took a blood test two months ago and I saw in the results that the MPV in my blood was 13.00 and the normal mpv in the blood is supposed to be 6.5-11.5 .
Does anyone know what does it mean ?

I'll bet she did notice, in my experience blood tests (and other tests with a "range") hare somehow highlighted if the test is out of range.

Looks to me to be only slightly elevated, the range given is an average and you may not be average... in this regard.  What did your doctor say?

I can not comment on MPV specifically but again observe that numbers slightly above or below a "normal" range may not indicate any problem.
