I done tested hiv duo combo on 30th day it's negative with value 0.13. Then I test hiv 1&2 Elisa (Antibody only) on 45th day it's also negative with value of 0.19. Am is safe? Is 45th day 3rd gen Elisa test is reliable?

Male | 21

According to your test results, it is very encouraging that both the HIV combo and Elisa tests were negative. The 3rd-generation Elisa test is reliable and fairly accurate in detecting HIV antibodies on the 45th day. Don't forget HIV symptoms can be different; however, the most common ones are flu-like symptoms, rash, and fatigue.

Male | 20

Your blood test results have come back as abnormal. Generally, high levels of lym p-lc, MCV, PDW, mpv, and rdw-cv, in the case of low MHC and platelet count, can indicate various conditions. Your symptoms of anxiety, night fever, leg pain, and weight loss are bothersome. These abnormal results and symptoms may be linked to health issues such as anemia, infections, or inflammatory conditions. A doctor's follow-up is necessary for detailed diagnosis and treatment of the problem.

I am suffering from enlarged spleen, splenic nodules, splenic focal lesion, ileal wall thickening, enlarged lymph nodes, pleural effusion. What is the disease

Female | 43

You may have a condition that is called lymphoma. Lymphoma is a cancer type that harms the lymphatic system, such as the spleen, lymph nodes, and other organs. Symptoms could involve enlarged spleen and lumps in the spleen, thickening of the ileal wall, and pleural effusion. Interestingly, the typical approach for lymphoma addresses therapy with radiation, chemotherapy, and sometimes surgery. It is essential to work with your doctor in order to fully investigate and then create a healthcare plan that is specifically developed for you in connection with the discovered condition.

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.

Female | 20

You might have been affected by an infection with a virus that has in turn caused a blood infection which in turn may cause joint pains in your legs. Antibiotics can disrupt the equilibrium of our body's good bacteria, causing joint pain. For relief of the joint pains, you can try gently exercising, using heat or ice treatment, and taking a break. Stay well-hydrated and eat fresh and good foods to provide adequate support to your body during the healing process.

My platelet count is 5.5 lakh so it is normal or not

Male | 17

A platele­t count of 5.5 lakh is normal. These tiny cells he­lp blood clot properly. Low platelets me­an bruising easily, bleeding too much, and cuts won't stop ble­eding. High platele­ts might signal infection, inflammation, or medical issues. So, re­gular check-ups with your doctor monitor those platele­t levels. Your number looks good now. But de­finitely double-check with a doctor.

I am a thalassemia carrier. The doctor did not know that. He gave me a multivitamin. Which contains iron. Is it safe for me?

Female | 20

As a thalassemia carrier, your body produces less hemoglobin, which can sometimes lead to mild anemia. Taking iron supplements can lead to excess iron accumulation, which may not be safe for you. It's crucial to avoid unnecessary iron intake unless prescribed by an physician. I recommend discussing your multivitamin with your doctor, who can provide personalized advice based on your health status. In the meantime, focus on a balanced diet rich in vitamins and nutrients. Don't hesitate to reach out if you have more questions; your health is important, and professional guidance is key.

Hello doctor I have a very challenging question here for you to help me with. Do you have to extend the duration of PEP for HIV prophylaxis to more days if the patient got another exposure on the 6th day while taking the regular 28 days dosage regimen. He had so far reached the 6th day of taking his PEP and got anothet exposure. So should we add more 6 days on top of the remaining 22 days. Thanks Laurence

Male | 26

If a person on HIV PEP experiences another exposure to the virus on the sixth day of treatment, it is of the utmost importance to consult a doctor. They will consider the situation at hand very carefully and consequently decide this case. Quite sometimes, they might find it adequate to prolong the treatment duration according to personal circumstances for optimal safety. Never forget that open and honest communication with your healthcare team is the crucial component of the best possible care.

I'm depressed that is I'm hiv positive pls help me

Male | 19

If you have recently been diagnosed with HIV, it is quite normal to feel low. Symptoms of HIV include fever, sore throat, and being more tired than usual. The virus makes the immune system weaker, so the body cannot fight infections easily. Always, keep the thought in your mind that HIV is treatable with the help of medications. Medicines can indeed assist you in leading a healthy life. Discuss with your doctor initiating medication and going to support groups.

Is 3.5 mmol/l cholesterol is normal

Male | 37

When you have 3.5 mmol/l cholesterol, that is okay. Cholesterol is like fat in your blood. If your cholesterol is high, there are usually no signs. An unhealthy diet, not doing enough exercise, and a family history can cause this condition. To stay healthy with it being normal eat well and exercise regularly also if necessary take some drugs from the doctor.
