Newborn copper test high

Hi,

Our 11 week old has a copper level of 14

This appears to be double the average level for her age.
Should we be worried? Does anyone know what this may indicate?
Thanks

Who ordered the copper test and why? Presumably it was a Dr?

Paed consultant. Battery of tests as he has bad colic symptoms and a bit slow meeting milestones.
