If your blood Packed cell volume level is between 41 % to 49.5 % and the Alkaline phosphatase level is between 30 % to 120 U/L, then your body does not have any underlying health problems. But if Packed cell volume and Alkaline phosphatase levels exceed these levels, you should see a doctor immediately.
