I had a blood test about 3 or 4 days ago and just got the report today. My lymphocytes count is at 44, while it was 14 back on April 25th. Should I be worried about this change?

I'm really worried about my wife who's got dengue. Her platelet count was initially at 52,000, but then it dropped to 18,000, which led us to get her admitted and she had a platelet transfusion. Since then, her platelet counts have been creeping upfirst 28,000, then 36,000, and now it's at 47,000. I'm confused because I thought after a transfusion, her platelets would increase more quickly. Is this normal or should I be concerned about how slowly they're going up?
it will improve

I'm really concerned about my dad's D-Dimer levels. They were supposed to stay below 500, but now they've shot up to 900. He was in quarantine for about 25 days and recently discharged from the hospital, but this rise in D-Dimer really worries me. Some doctors say it's normal post-COVID, while others say it's not. He's feeling okay, with no cold, cough, or other COVID symptoms now. What can be done to keep these levels in check? I'm anxious about how to handle this situation.
Elevated D-Dimer levels post-COVID-19 can be concerning. To help control this, your dad can be prescribed anticoagulant medication. I recommend he takes Apixaban (Eliquis) 5mg twice daily. This medication will help prevent blood clots and keep the D-Dimer levels in check. It is important to follow up with his healthcare provider for regular monitoring and adjustment of the dosage as needed.
