Question 1

I'm a bit concerned about my lab results. My lymphocyte count is at 0.99, and my total WBC is 4.9. I recently took a COVID test, and it came back negative, and the COVID antibody test was also negative. I did take a course of cefpodoxime a few days ago. Could that be affecting my lymphocyte count? Also, what is considered a normal range for lymphocytes? Would appreciate any insights.

Accepted Answer

A normal lymphocyte count for adults is 1,000 to 4,800 lymphocytes per microliter of blood. For children, the normal range is 3,000 to 9,500 lymphocytes per microliter of blood.

Question 2

I've had all three of my rabies shots right on time, but I've missed the fourth one that was supposed to be on the 15th. It's now the 16th. Is it okay to get it on the 17th, or should I be worried?

Accepted Answer

Antibiotics are ineffective against viral infections. Continue taking Dolo 650 to manage fever and symptoms. Consider adding:

1. Rest and hydration
2. Warm liquids (e.g., tea, soup)
3. Saline nasal drops (for congestion)
4. Cough syrup (if needed)

Question 5

I'm really worried about my right hand. It doesn't seem to have as much strength as my left hand anymore. When I overwork it, my fingers start trembling pretty badly. It feels like all the strength in my fingers is just gone. What could be causing this?

Accepted Answer

It sounds like you're experiencing weakness and trembling in your right hand, which could be due to muscle fatigue, nerve issues, or even an underlying condition. I recommend seeing a doctor for a proper evaluation to rule out possible causes like nerve compression, carpal tunnel syndrome, or any muscular disorders. In the meantime, resting your hand and avoiding overexertion could help.

Question 6

I've been having shortness of breath for about a week now, and it seems to be getting worse every day. I saw a physician last week who thought it might be related to acidity, so I took medication for that, but it hasn't really helped my breathing at ...

Accepted Answer

Since the medication for acidity hasn't helped, I recommend revisiting your doctor to reassess the cause. Given that the symptoms are persisting and worsening, further investigation is important to rule out conditions like asthma, allergies, or heartlung problems.

Track your symptoms: Keeping a diary of your symptoms (when they occur, their severity, any triggers) can be helpful for your doctor to get a clearer picture.

Consider seeing a specialist: If your physician is uncertain, you might want to see a pulmonologist (lung specialist) or an ENT specialist (for sinus or throat issues).
