I was going to say the same thing. You could theoretically have a max HP of 32 000 but you would need aside of what is already mentioned either expand the leveling up system or allow a bigger HP increase at level up which is a simpler solution but then a game rebalance come into play. Adapting the different menus isn't so bad. There might be other stuff to consider that I am not at the moment considering.
