Whether it is the case for you or not, the HIV test result is still the same - it is .13 and is in the grey zone of the reference range .9 - 1, which means it is inconclusive. Having this result, however, does not in any way guarantee that you have HIV. Among the symptoms of HIV that may appear are the following: flu, fatigue, and unexplained weight loss. The causes have to do with engaging in unprotected sex or sharing needles. A retest will clarify the situation.

Dengue is spread by mosquitoes and can produce symptoms such as fever, headache, muscle pain, and rash. Your tests show positive for dengue IgM and IgG antibodies. It is essential to rest, drink fluids, and use acetaminophen to relieve fever and pain. See a doctor for more advice.

Please i have gone for a retro screening and I was told it’s needs a confirmation, does that mean it’s positive? And I was told the result will be ready after 2 weeks. Please what does that mean?
Female | 26
Sometimes, needing a retro screening isn't serious. However, a diagnosis requires testing first, so don't stress. Waiting for test results takes time to ensure accuracy. Retro infection symptoms differ but often mimic flu symptoms. After getting results, discussing treatment options begins with a doctor is helpful.

Hi, I would like some medical reports checked. How can it be attached here?
Male | 72
Getting medical reports tested in person is the best, hence it is good to discuss them with your health care provider. That said, if you wish to share more information, you can detail any symptoms you may be going through. For example, if you are tired, dizzy, or suffering from stomach pains such as appendicitis or sigmoid colon they've been and infection, austere or stiff deficiencies, or other conditions could be the reasons.

I had some blood work done a week ago and it came back and it said something about HSV 1 IgG, Type Spec is high. what does that mean
Female | 30
HSV 1 is an infection that can bring about fever blisters around your lips. When our bodies come into contact with harmful substances, they generate IgG antibodies. High HSV 1 IgG levels may indicate you’ve had the virus in the past. Cold sores might develop in your mouth or lips. Sores are often painful and may take several days to heal.

Myself Rohan, I got vaccinated 20 days ago of anti rabies vaccine of 4 doses . Today I got scratch a little caused by a cat leading to bleed a little bit.. I need a clarification.. should i do again vaccinated. Thank you so much
Male | 21
If your vaccine is 20 days old if you accidentally hit a cat and it starts bleeding, there is no need to go through the vaccination process again. The vaccine that you took ought to have defended you from rabies. You have to clean the surface of the cut with soap and water, then apply a bandage on it and check if it is red, swollen, or has a hot sensation. If you experience any unexpected symptoms, make sure to call your doctor.

It’s getting bloodwork for herpes after 12 days too soon
Male | 30
Getting blood work for herpes can be tricky. It might take some time for the virus to show in your blood test results. That is why you should wait a few weeks before testing for herpes. Painful sores, itching, and flu-like symptoms can be signs of herpes. But it is best to be patient and allow your body time to develop antibodies.

Needle stick injury.After the 5 hours of nsi I tested my blood in laboratory like serology-hiv1-2 hcv-1 2 hbs ag , negative.120 over I was give another blood sample to laboratory like serology-hiv1-2 hcv-1 2 hbs ag, negative
Male | 20
A needle stick injury can raise concerns about potential infections, but it's reassuring that your initial blood tests for HIV, HCV, and hepatitis B surface antigen have all returned negative. Common symptoms following exposure can include pain, redness, or swelling at the site, but serious infections are rare. It's essential to remain vigilant for any unusual symptoms over the next few weeks. You should consult a general physician for futher concerns.

How long should I take qpcal cmd? My doctor prescribed it for 1 month. Can I continue without doctor advise?
Male | 43
Doctors prescribe Qpcal CMD for certain symptoms. Following your doctor's advice about taking medicine is important. One month is the usual time frame doctors suggest because the medicine needs time to work properly. Taking it longer may not always be necessary or safe. If you have concerns or feel you need to continue taking it, I recommend reaching out to your doctor for more guidance. Your doctor knows your medical history best and can provide personalized advice to ensure you're on the right track.

Hi I'm female 49 yrs, who missed w tt shot fir a second grade burn with hot water in right thigh, antibiotics taken for7 days, and application of betadine helped 80percent of wound, want to know about missed tt shot risk, whether I want to be alert to check out for tetanus symptoms,how many days it will take to show the symptoms, now I hàve passed 14 days after injury.please reply
Female | 49
Since you missed tetanus vaccination after second-degree burns, you are at risk for tetanus infection. The symptoms may be visible within 3 to 21 days, usually at 7 to 10 days. Tightness of muscles, spasms in the jaw, and difficulty in swallowing are some of the symptoms that one may experience. If you notice these signs, you should seek medical attention at once. The tetanus vaccine can, however, be administered after an injury to avoid infection.

Sir I m 25 years old boy .Sir someone implanted a RFID chip in my body . please can u help me find out how can I detect the chip in my body .which type of process is required for full body scan to find out it.
Male | 26
You cannot feel an RFID chip just by touching it. A full body scan like an X-ray, MRI, or CT scan may help see the chip. You may feel pain, swelling, or odd feelings near the chip spot. If you think you have an RFID chip, go see a doctor to check and do what needs done.

My mom had taken echo test yesterday....I want to share the reports can you please check
Female | 49
There are specific signs such as chest tightness or shortness of breath that can be related to different medical problems, meager in severity to very serious. The reporting can be quite challenging to understand, so for me, the best approach is to talk to her doctor about them and follow the advice given by her healthcare provider. Having regular checkups is crucial since it provides the best care for your mom that is personalized to her condition. Your initiative is impressive, and seeking clarity is indeed a smart move!

I am wondering can you do a test for intracellular calcium levels yourself? If the intracellular calcium levels are too high, would that show up in calcium blood test?
Male | 34
You cannot test your cell calcium levels by yourself. High calcium in the cells may not appear in a normal blood test. Too much calcium inside your cells can make you feel weak and tired. It can also make you confused. Some medicines may cause high cell calcium levels. If you have high cell calcium, your doctor may change your medicine or try other treatments.

Male | 26
It appears that you are facing symptoms such as fever, cold, and cough. These potential causes are going around these days due to different reasons like viruses or allergies that arise in certain seasons. To aid in controlling your symptoms, attempt to drink plenty of water, sleep well, and use over-the-counter drugs like paracetamol to reduce fever. You can have a cup of herbal tea or water to help soothe your throat and reduce congestion.

Female | 21
You want to get fit. Being too thin can happen if your body uses up food fast or if you do not eat a lot. To gain weight, eat good stuff like fruits, veggies, grains, and protein. Do not skip meals. Eat often. As for breasts, they come in all shapes and sizes for each girl. Pills may not change them much.
