Question

I'm dealing with IBS and malnutrition, and every year my CBC shows high lymphocytes. This has been the case for the past 10 years, and I'm really wondering why this keeps happening. Could there be a connection between my IBS, malnutrition, and the high lymphocytes? Is this something to be worried about? I'm looking for some advice on whether there's something specific I should be doing or looking into.

The immune system may be activated in response to inflammation or infection in the gut, leading to an increase in lymphocytes. It's important to address the underlying causes of your IBS and malnutrition to help normalize your lymphocyte levels. It's crucial to consult with your healthcare provider for proper evaluation and management.

Question

I'm really struggling with some left side chest tightness I've been having for the past couple of months. Sometimes it spreads to my shoulder and neck, and it even feels like something is stuck in my throat. I've gone through a bunch of cardiac tests like an ECG, Echo, treadmill test, and blood work, and they've all come back normal. I've also seen an ENT, an internist, and a neurologist. They all say everything looks fine. I'm on meds for my blood pressure (Amlopine 5mg) and cholesterol (Atorvastatin 20mg), and both are normal according to my recent check-up. But I'm still not feeling any better. Any idea what's going on or what I should do next?

Question

I'm really worried because I accidentally drank lemon juice from a copper vessel this morning, and it made me vomit. Even after having lunch, I'm still not feeling great inside. Could this be something serious? Should I be concerned about any long-term effects or do you have any advice on what I should do next?

Question

I've been feeling like I want to throw up and I'm really weak. I ended up taking Metrogyl 400 in the morning and then again at night. Is that the right thing to do?
