Lymphoma can lead to various symptoms such as swollen lymph nodes, unexplained weight loss, fevers, and night sweats. The exact causes remain unclear, but factors may include genetic predisposition and immune system issues. Treatment options often include chemotherapy, radiation, or targeted therapies, designed to effectively manage the condition. It's essential to have open discussions with a healthcare provider to tailor a plan that suits your needs. Regular follow-ups and monitoring are also crucial for adapting your treatment as necessary.

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.

I'm 21 years old women I've a question today i had a CBC 1 blood test and 3 days back i smoked cigarette will my doctor be able to make out by seeing my blood reports that i smoked ?

Female | 21

Cigarette smoking tends to impact the results of CBC blood tests but they don’t directly reveal it. By increasing your white blood cell count, smoking may indicate signs of inflammation or an infection to a physician. Tell truthfully about your smoking habits when asked by healthcare practitioners so that they can provide appropriate treatment for you.

I have 16 pea sized lymph nodes I am 57kg my height is 5ft 10 I’ve had them for almost 2 years and they haven’t got bigger or changed I’ve had blood tests previously and they all came back fine. I do have 2 under my jaw that’s a bit bigger than a pea though. Is it a concern? I have no symptoms except bad anxiety. I am highly afraid of cancers

Male | 17

Your lymph nodes not changing size or growing for two years is good. When it comes to cancer we tend to worry a lot due to anxiety. They might remain slightly enlarged sometimes. It’s usually benign but it would be prudent to get the larger ones checked by your doctor. Additionally, work on calming down your nerves because that can also be of help.

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.

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.

Im 25 years and I have lymph node in underarms and it's slightly painful with fever doctor says it's TB but there are no as symptoms as of now

Male | 25

Lymph nodes can become sore due to infections or inflammation, and a fever indicates that your body is reacting to something. These common examples could be caused by tuberculosis, and what if there are no other signs? It’s crucial to follow your doctor's advice, as they will likely recommend tests to confirm the diagnosis. The process should include bed rest, hydration, and stress management. Please schedule a follow-up appointment to discuss your treatment options and any additional symptoms.

আমার হাতের আঙ্গুল দিয়ে একাকাই রক্ত পড়ছে। আমি তার জন্য একটা টিটেনাস নিয়েছি কিন্ত এখনও রক্ত পড়ছে। এখন আমি কি করব বুঝতে পারছি না।

Male | 15 Year

রক্ত পড়া সাধারণত আঘাতের কারণে হয়, যা সংক্রমণ বা অন্যান্য সমস্যার জন্য সংকেত হতে পারে। প্রথমে আঘাতটি পরিষ্কার করুন এবং একটি বিকল্প ব্যান্ডেজ ব্যবহার করে পুরোপুরি চাপ দিন। যদি রক্তপাত বন্ধ না হয় বা এটি বেড়ে যায়, তাহলে দ্রুত ডাক্তারের সঙ্গে যোগাযোগ করা উচিত। টিটেনাস প্রাপ্তি গুরুত্বপূর্ণ, কিন্তু যদি আপনার আঘাত গভীর হয় বা অন্য কোনো সমস্যা অনুভব করেন, তাহলে পেশাদার চিকিৎসা সেবা গ্রহণ করা আপনার জন্য নিরাপদ। মনে রাখবেন, সঠিক চিকিৎসা পাওয়া গুরুত্বপূর্ণ। আপনি চিন্তা করবেন না, অধিকাংশ আঘাত ভালোভাবে মেরামত হয়।

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.

High ESR (erythrocyte sedimentation rate) and CRP levels can indicate inflammation in your body. Common causes include infections, autoimmune diseases like lupus, and certain cancers. It’s important to work with a doctor to find the right solution and address the root cause. Treatment will depend on the underlying condition and may involve medications, lifestyle changes, or further testing.

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.
