I got a complete body profile test and found that my hemoglobin and RBC are below average. Please tell me how to increase them. My serum triglycerides and VLDL cholesterol are above average; please tell me how to decrease them. My thyroid is under control because of medications, but if possible, can you tell me how to manage thyroid without medications? I have attached my report. Please give me your advice on how I can keep everything under control? Thank you.

Improve iron intake (leafy greens, supplements), avoid sugar/fried food for lipids. Thyroid control without meds is rare, continue monitoring.

Dr. Vasanthasree Suggests...

Take a CBC Test (Complete Blood Count) Test or Take a Thyroid Profile (T3 T4 TSH) Test Test

I am having recurring mouth ulcers and my blood report shows serum iron as 60 ug per dl. Can this be the cause of the ulcers?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

I experience evening shivering, fever, headache, and body pain. My blood report taken on Friday was normal, with no positive results for malaria or typhoid. Still, the fever returns daily in the evening with shivering, and after taking Dolo 650, it calms down for 3 to 4 hours. I started Lumerex 80 mg yesterday. Please advise if hospital admission is required?
