I'm really concerned about my wife's recent lab test results. Her vitamin B12 level came back at 1500. Is this something we should be worried about? What steps should we take to bring it back to a normal range?

While moderate elevation may not be harmful, its important to address the potential causes with the guidance of a doctor to ensure there's no underlying medical condition contributing to the high B12 level.

I've been eating a lot of ice from the fridge and even the frost inside the freezer, probably around 2025 times a day. It's like I have a real craving for it. I'm starting to wonder if this could be bad for me. If it is, what should I do to stop wanting freezer frost so much?

Question

I've been dealing with dengue and was in the hospital about 10 days ago. My platelet count was really low, around 68,000, but by the time I was discharged, it had gone up to 1.2 lakh. Since then, I've been on medication and doing regular CBC checks. The numbers have been climbing quite a bit: 2.5 lakh at the first check, 4.28 lakh at the second, and today it's at 5.1 lakh. Is it okay for my platelets to be this high, or should I be worried about it?
