It’s understandable to be concerned about your health after experiencing these symptoms and lab results. While headaches, fever, and changes in your blood cell counts can indicate various conditions, they are not specific to HIV. The immune system can fluctuate due to many factors, including infections and stress. It’s reassuring that your results normalized over time. However, I strongly recommend consulting a physician for personalized advice and further evaluation.

I am 18yrs old......my gender is female....I have so many dizziness and I was test my haemoglobin and it's is 18.6 is this high or low
Female | 18
A hemoglobin level of 18.6 is already a high value. This may be what is behind your dizziness. In addition, high hemoglobin can also result in headaches and red skin. It might be dehydration, lung diseases, or heart problems. To decrease hemoglobin levels, drink more water, refrain from smoking, and work out regularly. Iron-rich foods such as broccoli and beans can also help.

I've been sick for months , my white blood cell and t cells are abnormal but primary not doing anything about it
Male | 51
Your blood tests showed weird white cells and T cells. Those cells fight germs. So weird counts may mean your immune system isn't working right. Being tired, sick often, and losing weight for no reason - those could be signs too. Visit a hematologist to get proper treatment.

Male | 32
Common signs of HIV include unexplained weight loss, fatigue, fever, and swollen lymph nodes. The virus spreads mainly through unprotected sex and sharing needles. To address your worries, consider getting tested for HIV, as early detection is crucial for effective management. Consulting a hematologist can provide clarity and support tailored to your situation. They can guide you through testing, and if needed, discuss potential treatments. Remember, many people living with HIV lead healthy lives with proper care.

Male | 38
Being tired all the time, getting sick a lot, night sweats, and daily headaches can be hard to deal with. These signs might be caused by different things such as infections, hormonal imbalances, or other medical problems. You need to see a doctor who will be able to find out what is wrong and give you the right treatment so that you can start feeling better.

Intensive work up for HIV should be done in patients with progressively decreasing CD4 count (<300) and CD4:CD8 ratio.
Male | 13
Someone's CD4 count below 300 and off-kilter CD4:CD8 ratio signal immune woes, perhaps from HIV. HIV weakens immunity. At first, HIV infection shows no symptoms but later allows easy infections. Early testing and treatment promote health.

I am having swollen lymph nodes in my neck since two years I have done fnac and biopsy both comes with result reactive lyphadenopathy....is it Cancer????
Female | 23
Reactive lymphadenopathy means the lymph nodes are responding to something which is not necessarily cancer. This can be caused by infections such as colds. Skin conditions can also cause them. Your doctor might want to keep an eye on them for a while or do more tests to be sure. Changes are always best recorded and communicated with a healthcare provider.

I had a blood transfusion due to which the body has become inflamed
Female | 21
Having inflammation after a blood transfusion is one possibility, as your body might reject the new blood. Some of the symptoms are swelling, redness, or warmth. The reaction to the allergy or the mild side effect could be a reason. It is vital to watch over your symptoms closely. The best things to do are drinking plenty of liquids and resting. Yet, if inflammation continues or gets worse, you might want to notify your healthcare provider, who can give you your own advice and treatment.

I had my blood test and the report is normal just my PCT level is shown high can I know more about it
Female | 23
PCT is short for procalcitonin which is a chemical our body makes when it is fighting infections. Increased PCT can signify an ongoing infection in the body. Your body might be having symptoms of fever such as chills or even an uncomfortable feeling all over. Consult a hematologist to know the cause and infection.

Hiv and cbc abnormalities in acute and sub acute and chronic stages
Male | 29
HIV can lead to changes in blood tests, affecting your immune system. In early stages, symptoms might include fatigue or fever, while later, chronic phases could show more severe signs like weight loss or ongoing infections. These variations in your complete blood count (CBC) result from how the virus impacts your body. Seeking early medical advice is important, as physician can provide tailored treatments and support. Regular check-ups and monitoring will help manage your health effectively.

Female | 29
A rapid drop in bhCG levels, from 389 to 280 in just two days, can be concerning. It might indicate cramping, bleeding, or even a miscarriage. However, don't panic yet—additional tests are needed. Keep your doctor informed about any new symptoms, and they will guide you on the appropriate monitoring and next steps.

It is most probable that you have Iron Deficiency Anemia. This is where your blood could be short of healthy red blood cells. Being a little anemic, tiredness, paleness, and shortness of breath may appear. Ingesting foods that are packed with iron such as spinach, meat, and beans can be of great help to this client. Another piece of advice may deal with more iron supplements, they will. Follow the suggestions given by the medical doctor to recover completely.

I am a 15 year old female who has been feeling heavy, achy legs with inactivity for 3 weeks since I arrived back at school. I weigh 115 pounds and have had sensitivity to the cold and purplish blotches that show up on my legs when exposed to extreme temperatures since I was young.
Female | 15
You might have some symptoms of a condition known as Raynaud's phenomenon. This can cause your legs to feel heavy and achy, especially in the cold. The purplish blotches you see when it's cold are also common with Raynaud's. The blood vessels in your body become too sensitive to cold or stress and this is how the condition occurs. It is advisable to y8 wear warm clothes to manage these symptoms.

Started taking pep and it’s day 12 now but the results after testing it went positive
Male | 25
It's understandable to feel concerned after receiving a positive test result, even while taking post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP). PEP is highly effective but not 100% guaranteed. Symptoms of potential HIV infection can include fatigue, fever, or swollen lymph nodes. I recommend scheduling an appointment with your sexologist, who can guide you through further testing and provide personalized advice. This is a crucial step to confirm your status and discuss any next steps for your health.

Hello, Doctor. I hope you're doing well. I recently had the opportunity to review my aunt's blood test results, and I was concerned to see that her neutrophil count is extremely high. Could you please explain what this might mean? Is it possible that she has an infection or a chronic disorder such as rheumatoid arthritis or inflammatory bowel disease? Alternatively, could it be indicative of a more serious condition like cancer? Or perhaps it's related to a side effect of some medication she's taking? I would greatly appreciate your insight into this matter.
Female | 45
A high neutrophil count can indicate inflammation or infection in the body and may be linked to conditions like rheumatoid arthritis or inflammatory bowel disease. Certain medications can also cause an increase. If your aunt has symptoms like fever, fatigue, or pain, it's important to consult a doctor for proper diagnosis and treatment.

Getting bigger spleen from 10 cm to 12.1 cm can be bad sign. It can mean infections, liver problems, or blood issues. You might feel pain in belly or feel full fast. More tests like blood work or scans may be needed to know why. It is important to see a doctor for the right care.

I have Vit D 38 and B12 302 Haemoglobin 10 (iron deficiency 8) Do I need to take supplements ?
Female | 48
As per the report your vitamin D level of 38 is on the lower side, and vitamin B12 at 302 is generally acceptable but could be improved depending on symptoms. A hemoglobin level of 10 suggests mild anemia, likely due to iron deficiency. Common symptoms include fatigue, weakness, and pale skin. To address these issues, consider incorporating iron-rich foods, such as leafy greens, lean meats, and legumes, while also looking at vitamin D and B12 sources like sunlight, fish, and fortified foods. It's wise to consult a healthcare provider for personalized advice and potential supplementation to enhance your overall well-being.

Female | 21
Alpha thalassemia major can be present in a patient who does not require blood transfusions. This form of the disorder can result in severe anemia, although it affects people differently. Some individuals may not need a transfusion at all. Signs and symptoms of alpha thalassemia may include fatigue, weakness, or paleness of skin. Treatment may consist of symptom management such as taking supplements or drugs that stimulate the production of more red blood cells within the body. Please consult a doctor for individualized advice.
