Question

I recently got a blood test, and my ESR came back at 18. I'm a bit worried because Im not sure if that's within the normal range. My SGPT was also 52. Should I be concerned about these results? What do they really mean?

Question

Ive been dealing with a cough and cold for a few days and recently had a fever that went up to around 100.5F. It only lasted for a bit and went down after taking pcm. My doctor suggested a blood test and it turns out my ESR is at 40, though my hemoglobin and platelet count are normal. I'm confused and a bit worried about why my ESR is high. The doctor told me to take azithromycin for 5 days. Is there something serious going on with this high ESR?

Question

I'm really worried about my 17-year-old sister. She's had a fever for a week now, and the doctors said it's just a normal viral fever. But it's not getting better, so we got her CBC reports done, and it shows her WBC count is low. Why does the WBC count drop in viral infections? Could it be a sign of something more serious?

Question

Could you please tell me if there's anything serious that needs attention from these full body health checkup reports? I'm feeling a bit worried and want to make sure everything's okay.
