Answered on 26th Sept '24
Low hemoglobin A2 causes weakness and fatigue. Your body lacks iron. Insufficient iron happens when the diet lacks iron-rich foods like beans, spinach, red meat. Boost hemoglobin A2 by discussing iron supplements or diet changes with a doctor.

I. T. P. Prblm in one year
Male | 9
I.T.P. stands for Idiopathic Thrombocytopenic Purpura. This can occur when your immune system mistakenly attacks the blood platelets your body needs to stop the bleeding. Symptoms include easy bruising, tiny red dots on the skin, and gum bleeding. Treatment may include medications or, in more severe cases, procedures to increase the number of platelets. Don't forget to visit a hematologist for the right treatment.

Male | 36
The symptoms you mention - rashes, red dots, hot sensation, and shortness of breath - may be caused by various reasons other than HIV. For instance, stress and anxiety are also potential causes of these symptoms. To be sure, you can ask a doctor.

Systematic increases in immature granulocytes Good morning, Firstly, I will mention that I suffer from numerous chronic inflammatory diseases, as this may be relevant. These include Ulcerative Proctitis; Atrophic Gastritis; Last year, I also underwent two cervical electrosurgery procedures due to advanced dysplasia (CIN3). (The last colposcopy and colonoscopy did not reveal any suspicious changes) For a year now, my blood morphology tests have been showing an elevated level of immature granulocytes: The latest test (May '24) showed: Immature granulocytes IG - 0.09 thousand/µl; Norm: 0-0.04 thousand/µl Immature granulocytes IG % - 1.00; Norm: 0-0.5% The rest of the blood morphology is normal, leukocytes in urine - within the norm. Previous results (April '23): Immature granulocytes IG - 0.05 thousand/µl; Norm: 0-0.04 thousand/µl Immature granulocytes IG % - 0.7; Norm: 0-0.5% (and a very slightly elevated MCV) Even older (January '23): Immature granulocytes IG - 0.04 thousand/µl; Norm: 0-0.04 thousand/µl Immature granulocytes IG % - 0.6; Norm: 0-0.5% (and a very slightly elevated MCV and basophils) There is a clear upward trend since last year. I initially thought this was due to extreme stress (CIN3, LLETZ etc). Now I am not so sure... Are these results very concerning and indicative of a cancerous process? Can chronic inflammatory states cause an increase in IG, or is it rather some kind of “acute” disease state? Could the fact that I rode a bike to the laboratory (medium and short-term physical effort) affect the increase in results? I would be very grateful for your response and advice. Best regards, J.
Female | 40
Raised levels of these are often linked to chronic inflammation similar to stress, in this case, it is important to control them initially. With the status of attempted diagnosis for specific inflammatory conditions, your previous experience, and the new procedures on the lookout for anything new, don't hesitate to let a doctor know. It would be helpful to get solid advice from your healthcare provider concerning your test results.

RBC level 5.10 wht to do dr please answer
Female | 32
Red blood cells are important. Too many is not good. A level of 5.10 is a bit high. That can happen for different reasons. Maybe you didn't drink enough water. Or maybe you smoke. Some medical issues like polycythemia can also cause it. You might feel tired, dizzy, or get headaches. To fix it, drink lots of water. Don't smoke. Follow your doctor's advice.

One person has a cut on his hand . It was bleeding. I ate food from his hand. If that person is hiv positive. Does it transfer to me??
Female | 48
HIV is primarily transferred through some body fluids like blood. If someone with a cut on their hand eats saliva-containing food, the saliva does not carry enough virus to infect you. Being cautious will make sure to see out for symptoms include flu-like illness and talk to your doctor if you are concerned.

I'm an 18 year old female who thinks she may have Raynaud's? These are my symptoms. ### Raynaud’s Phenomenon: - **Fingers and Hands**: - Frequent color changes in response to cold, stress, or pressure: fingers turning white/yellow, blue/purple, and red during rewarming. - Numbness, pain, and stiffness, especially in cold water or when exposed to cold air. - Fingernails occasionally turn blue, particularly when nervous. - Fingers often go white under light pressure, but color returns after. - Red, painful, and numb fingers, especially when handling cold objects or after cold exposure. - Hands sometimes go pale/white in cold water, with visible blue veins. When they warm up it can feel tingly and intense heat and sometimes burning and uncomfortableness. - Ridges and a light white color underneath fingernails. - A small cut on your hand is taking longer than usual to heal. But cuts in general too. - **Feet and Toes**: - Feet often turn purple or blue when sitting still for long periods, especially without socks. - Numbness and coldness in feet, particularly when standing still or exposed to cold. - Toes sometimes appear weirdly purple/light blue/gray after cold exposure. - Difficulty standing and walking due to numbness and pain in feet, particularly in cold environments. - **General Cold Sensitivity**: - Need to wear multiple layers and use hot water bottles/heat packs to stay warm, especially at night or when sitting still. - Lips sometimes turn blue or darken when cold, especially during Raynaud’s attacks. - Occasional episodes of feeling cold despite being in a warm environment. - **Pain and Discomfort**: - Discomfort in hands and feet during cold exposure, sometimes making it difficult to perform tasks or move. ### Recent Observations: - **Improvement**: - Hands have been warmer than usual recently, with fewer Raynaud’s attacks. - **Persistent Issues**: - A cut on your hand that is slow to heal, potentially due to reduced blood circulation. - Ongoing need to protect hands and feet from cold to prevent Raynaud’s attacks.
Female | 18
It appears like you have Raynaud's Phenomenon. The condition makes your fingers and toes to change color, cause the cold and numb feeling, particularly, when you are exposed to cold or stress. This is due to blood vessels in your extremities overreacting to these triggers, thus, decreasing blood flow. The best way to do this is to wear warm clothes, gloves, and socks, and also avoid the cold that triggers such episodes.

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.

You may be experiencing a condition known as Immune Thrombocytopenic Purpura, or ITP. This disease can lower your platelet, which is necessary for the coagulation process. The symptoms are easy bruising, bleeding of the gums, and pale skin. Important: See a hematologist for the proper diagnosis. Treatments include drugs or platelet transfusions.

My cbc result was WBC 3.73 RBC 4.57 NEU 1.78
Female | 58
Your WBC count is slightly low at 3.73; RBC is normal at 4.57. NEU is also lower at 1.78. Low WBC suggests weaker immunity, making infections more likely. Have nutritious meals, ample sleep, stay hydrated. If unwell, see a doctor for examination and guidance.

I had an I pill last month and my blood tests today are High platelet counts Wbc count -7.95 Gran %-76.5 Platelets -141 PDW-SD-19.7 What does this mean
Female | 19
Your blood test shows some changes. A high platelet level might indicate swelling or infection. With a WBC count of 7.95, your body's defense system is active. The Gran% tells about certain white blood cells, which increase when there's an infection. Your platelet count of 141 is normal, but it’s good to keep an eye on it. It seems your body might be fighting off an illness, so it's wise to discuss these results with your doctor for further advice.

I am 46 years old . In annual health check up in urine protine is traced & pus cell count found 18-20 . In complete blood picture (CBP) ,Eosinophils count and Absolute Eosinophil count is zero . In Lipid Profile HDL Cholesterol result is 37 is it serious or needs to consult to doctor
Female | 46
Finding protein and pus cells in your urine could mean an infection or kidney problem. Zero Eosinophils? That might show you're not responding well to certain allergies. And low HDL cholesterol puts you at higher risk for heart disease. It's smart to talk to a doctor about these results. They can take a closer look and tell you what to do next.

is there any harm in using adfill injection instead of peg religrast injection?
Female | 45
Adfill injection differs from Peg Religrast. After cancer therapy, doctors prescribe Peg Religrast to boost white blood cells. However, Adfill has a distinct purpose unrelated to increasing blood cell count. Taking medicines incorrectly risks harming your health. Your doctor knows best which medications serve your needs. Listen carefully to medical advice about proper usage.

Male | 25
If you're already on PEP medication and had another exposure, it's important to let your healthcare provider know. They will, however, determine whether you require additional PEP treatment. Sometimes symptoms of HIV can take a while to develop, therefore it is better to be safe than sorry. PEP treatment assists in reducing the chances of acquiring HIV, nevertheless, it is still preferable to consult with your doctor to ensure that you are following the correct plan.

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.
