Dear Doctor, an 8 year old girl has been suffering from fever, and her blood report shows a haemoglobin level of 10.1, a total leukocyte count of 3700, and a C reactive protein level of 22 mg per dL. I am concerned about these results and would like to know if this situation is an emergency.

A raised CRP suggests infection, and low TLC can occur in viral fevers. It is not necessarily an emergency, but please consult a paediatrician soon for examination and treatment.

Take a CBC Test (Complete Blood Count) Test or Take a CRP Test (C - Reactive Protein) Test

Hello, I have deficiencies in both vitamin D and B12. When I take supplements, my levels improve, but if I stop the medicine even for a month, the levels drop again. Why does this happen, and what can I do to maintain normal vitamin levels?
