Question 1

I recently received my routine checkup report, but since I am not from a medical background, I tried to look up the meaning of the tests online to see if everything is normal. However, I am still unsure. My results are
Hemoglobin: 17.3 (High)
RBC count: 5.9 (High)
Hematocrit: 54.2 (High)
Absolute Basophil Count: 00 (Low)
MPV: 11.6 (High)
Total Cholesterol Ratio: 2.64 (Low)
BUN: 8.61 (Low)
Could you please explain what these results mean? Are they within normal limits, or is there any cause for concern?

Question 2

My 27 year old daughter had viral fever on Monday. After three days, the fever went away, but she is still suffering from a persistent cough. Her blood report and chest X ray are normal. She has taken many medicines and syrups, but the cough has not improved. The doctor said there is an infection in her throat. Please suggest what we should do next.

Question 3

My 8 month old niece has had a persistent fever for the past 2 weeks. It normalizes when given antipyretics but recurs every 8 to 10 hours. She has a normal diet but sometimes skips meals. She has also vomited 2 to 3 times. A blood test report showed a high lymphocyte count of 58. She traveled about 400 km last week, although comfortably. Could this affect her condition? What could be the reason, and what do you suggest? Thank you in advance.

I have fever with stomach ache and start to sweat then doze off to sleep. I got a blood report which shows typhoid and I am on medication.

Typhoid usually causes fever, belly pain and tiredness for 7 to 14 days. Take the full antibiotic course, eat light soft food, and rest. If fever persists beyond 3 days on treatment, retest to be sure the germ is clearing.
