It is good that your ELISA test results at 42 days are negative, and your partner also tested negative at 22 days. Since you have protected sex, the risk of HIV transmission is very low. However, for your peace of mind, you should follow up with your doctor. Consulting a specialist in infectious diseases can help address your anxiety and provide further reassurance.

i am a 69 year old male who have had angioplasty suffering from bp , diabetes plus suffered from a stroke too , my haemoglobin was 4.4 in may 2024 , it has increase to 11.1 in nov , should i still get regular checkups such as iron profile

Male | 69

With your medical history, it is crucial to regularly attend your doctor's appointments for the purpose of keeping your iron level under control. If anemia is left untreated, the individual might experience tiredness, weakness, and lightheadedness. Consumption of iron-containing foods like lean meat, beans, and spinach will aid your health. You should visit your doctor for checkups.

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.

Female | 22

Low blood volume, or anemia, can cause fatigue, weakness, and dizziness. Possible reasons include chronic blood loss, nutritional deficiencies, or certain medical conditions. It's important to increase your iron intake through diet—consider foods like spinach, meat, and beans. Staying hydrated is also vital. However, given your symptoms and recent diagnosis, I strongly recommend following up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and a tailored treatment plan.

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 | 17

This may be followed by pain in your joints, swelling, and ruddiness of your skin. For this, foods rich in purines, obese individuals, and those who have certain medical conditions are factors that trigger its occurrence. Drinking a lot of water, eating a nutritious diet, and consulting a hematologist for medications are some of the things you can do to lower uric acid levels.

Last year I did CBC. My lymphocyte was 16%. Is 16% too low? Does 16% lymphocytes means I have HIV infection? How much lymphocytes hiv infected person shows? At what level of lymphocytes Doctor advise HIV test? Please reply

Male | 41

An Lymphocyte percentage of 16% might fall into the reference range depending further on several factors still. This value alone does not mean that one has an HIV infection as the person with HIV infection can differ in their lymphocytes percentages. The most frequent warning signs of HIV are long-lasting fatigue, unintentional weight loss, and frequent infections. In case people are bothered by health issues, they should approach a doctor first for further advice and even a possible test. The doctor will explain the results to you and decide if further investigation is necessary, thus ensuring that you get the required support and care.

I am loosing weight continuously and getting slim like anaemia patients skin is so dull and sagging and I feel dizzy sometimes, get tired easily can't sit longer because my blood cells stops working so I have to move every moment

Female | 23

Anemia results from a deficient number of healthy red blood cells in the bloodstream. Low red blood cells mean asthma, dizziness, and quick weight loss. Your skin can also become pale and saggy. More spreadsheets with foods high in iron such as spinach and beans are advisable. Your doctor can also give you iron pills to increase the number of red blood cells.

I have lymph nodes under jaw last more than 8 months

Male | 19

There are so many possible reasons like infections, inflammations, and maybe the growth of a benign tumor that might cause swelling in the space that is under your jaw. The signs can be different, i.e., tenderness or discomfort. It's of great importance to stay vigilant and check for any other symptoms like fever or substantial changes. Even if many cases sort out by themselves, I suggest that you should see a hematologist who could give a full-time evaluation.

What is the treatment for glomus tumor??

Female | 44

A glomus tumor is a small, usually non-dangerous growth that causes discomfort and sensitivity, often in the fingers. These abnormal masses develop from cells growing excessively in the glomus body, a tiny structure that helps regulate body temperature. Treatment typically involves surgically removing the tumor, which should relieve symptoms and prevent them from returning.
