I was tested positive for Covid 19 on 17 April and now I am recovering from Covid. I am facing some problems related to post Covid recovery such as mild pain in chest, high pulse rate, irritation and itching in eyes, too much sleep, too much hunger, tiredness and weakness. As per my attached test report I have higher level of LDH, SGOT, eosinophils and low platelet count. What does this mean?

Today my wife 12 week blood report has come. All values are within the normal range except the WBC count, which is slightly higher than the standard range. The normal range is 4000 to 11000 and her result is 12800. Is this normal?

I have attached my CBP test report, which shows normocytic, normochromic RBCs. Could you please explain what this means? Is it abnormal? Additionally, I am experiencing burning sensations and excessive heat in my palms, feet, and eyes. Please advise what could be causing this and what steps I should take.
