Question 1

I'm a bit concerned about my recent blood test results showing high lymphocytes. Is this something I should be worried about? Plus, I've been losing weight unexpectedly. Could these things be connected?

Accepted Answer

High lymphocytes in the blood, known as lymphocytosis, can be caused by various factors such as infections, autoimmune disorders, and certain types of cancer like lymphoma. Since you are also experiencing excessive weight loss, it is important to further investigate the underlying cause. I would recommend consulting with a healthcare provider for a thorough evaluation. In the meantime, maintaining a healthy diet and lifestyle is important.

Accepted Answer

Revital H is a well known brand of multivitamins which does cover most of the requirements.

Accepted Answer

A fasting blood sugar level of 162 mgdL is higher than the normal range (70-99 mgdL) and indicates impaired fasting glucose, a precursor to diabetes; given your mother's age, blood pressure history, and non-diabetic status, it's essential to consult her doctor for further evaluation, including a confirmatory fasting blood sugar test, oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), or HbA1c test, to determine if she has developed diabetes or prediabetes, and to discuss lifestyle modifications and potential medication to manage her blood sugar levels
