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?

High Hb/RBC/HCT may suggest dehydration or high altitude living. Low BUN, Basophils not concerning. MPV high means larger platelets. Cholesterol ratio good.

Hi doctor, Please see my attached blood report and help me understand how to get my levels back to normal. I have been taking Liv52 Himalaya for two weeks, but my report has not improved yet. Kindly advise on the diet I should follow to help normalize my results. Also, is it okay for me to drink sugarcane juice?

My wife is experiencing headache, body pain, lower abdominal pain, nausea, and loss of appetite. Two months ago, she had low platelets and typhoid, but was treated and diagnosed at that time. Now she is having similar problems again. Recently, her hematology tests were done, including CRP, ESR, CBC, and routine urine examination. I have attached the test reports for your reference. Please advise on the next steps.
