I was diagnosed with typhoid and recovered a month ago. Now I get a fever every second day. After taking medicine, the fever goes away but returns after a day or two. I remain normal when there is no fever but feel weak. My blood test report shows RBC 3.9, Monocyte 2.0, WBC 13,100, and Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate 34. Please suggest?

The raised WBC and ESR suggest lingering inflammation. This could be post typhoid or a secondary infection. Monitor hydration and nutrition. Do the required repeat CBC and malaria, dengue tests.

Hello, in my complete blood test report the WBC count is 11,500 and platelets are 5,02,000, both slightly on the higher side. The other values are normal. What could be the reason for these high values?

I am 67 years old and have been experiencing chest pain. My blood report shows a low count of monocytes, and my chest X ray shows no signs of any problem. I believe the chest pain might be due to acidity.
