Hello Sir, I have attached two copies of my report for the lymph node behind my ear. I have been taking different antibiotics for the past three weeks. I am having a fever once a day around 100 degrees and headaches. The doctor has said that if it is not cured, it may need to be removed surgically as it is a bacterial infection. Please suggest the best treatment in homeopathy or should I consider surgery?

If antibiotics have not helped and the fever persists, surgical removal may be needed. This could be a resistant bacterial infection. Avoid delaying further. You can get a second surgical opinion.

I recently had a blood test for Typhidot IgM, and the result came back reactive, but I never experienced fever or other typical typhoid symptoms. I have started taking medicines, but now I feel weak and dizzy. Could you please explain what a reactive Typhidot IgM result means? Does it definitely mean I have typhoid? What should I do next?

I am sharing my report and just want a review on it. My platelets are low and lymphocytes are high. Is it okay and what should I do?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

I have lab results of WBC 12.4, platelets 470, MPV 7.1, lymphocytes 3.5. Is this a cause of concern? Please note I also have allergies and I did have a flu shot right before having the blood work done.
