I'm a bit concerned about my platelet count, which came back as 0.79 lakh per cubic millimeter. Is this considered normal or moderate? Also, I'm wondering if there's a way to treat this without needing a transfusion.

View allI'm really worried about my swollen lymph nodes in the posterior triangle. It's been about 5 months now, and even though the FNAC report says they're reactive, theyre still hard, tender, and moveable. I finished the antibiotics my doctor prescribed, but the swelling hasnt gone down. Could it be possible for lymph nodes from an infection to stay swollen for this long? What should I do next?

I'm looking over my CBC blood test results and I'm a bit worried. My PDW is at 17.1, and I've noticed my WBC count is 11.4, while the normal range they provided is between 4 to 9. Also, my HCT level is 41.8 but the normal ratio is 34 to 38. Could you help me understand what these numbers might mean? I'm not sure if these are something to be concerned about.
