If pH is normal but the CO2 is still high, I would expect the bicarbonate would be higher than normal to have compensated for the high CO2 and raised the pH.

I may have missed it, but I don’t think you addressed the Base Excess

For normal pH with high CO2, bicarb would be higher than normal to compensate the respiratory acidosis..
Can u add something on base excess parameters in gas report, sir?
