Hi, I have been suffering from fever for the past 5 days. My recent blood test shows a WBC count of 3.52 and platelet count of 99. What should I do? Please advise.
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Fever with low WBC (3.5) and low platelets (99) may indicate viral infections like dengue. Avoid painkillers except paracetamol, take plenty of fluids, and get adequate rest. Monitor for red spots, bleeding, or worsening weakness. Do a Dengue NS1 Antigen Test, repeat CBC daily, and consult your doctor immediately to track platelets and WBC trends. Go to the hospital if bleeding, breathlessness, or severe weakness occurs.
Dr. Rohinipriyanka Suggests...
Take a Dengue NS1 Antigen - Elisa Test or Take a CBC Test (Complete Blood Count) Test

View allMy husband has had a continuous fever for the past 3 days, with temperatures ranging from 98.8F to 100.5F. He also has cold and cough. Blood tests for malaria and typhoid are normal. CBC and urine routine tests are also normal. Despite taking antibiotics and paracetamol, the fever persists. Could you please advise what might be causing this and what steps we should take next?

I just received my father blood test report and the results say IGG negative, IGM positive, and NS1 antigen negative. Does that mean he is diagnosed with dengue virus?
