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.

I started feeling unwell with body aches and a temperature of 100F. I took paracetamol, and my temperature returned to normal, but then I developed a cough and mild sore throat. In the morning, I felt cold and my temperature rose to 102F. I took paracetamol again, which brought it down, but the fever returned by 11 am. I consulted a physician and have attached his prescription and test report. After taking the prescribed medicines, I felt better, but I still feel very weak. Last night, I experienced restlessness, excessive sweating, and a rapid heartbeat for a few minutes. I am unsure what happened.

I get tired easily and cannot run or climb much. I do not do any exercise. I have attached my whole blood report along with my blood sugar report. Why do I feel weakness or fatigue? Thanks and regards.

My father recent regular health check up report shows a high neutrophil count and a low lymphocyte count, which is similar to the report from the previous month as well. He also has existing conditions such as piles and glaucoma.
