I'm a bit worried about the blood group compatibility between my son and his fiance. My son's blood group is O positive, and her blood group is AB negative. Could this cause any issues when they try to conceive or when it comes to having healthy kids?

Question

I've just received my blood test results, and a few things seem off to me. My mean platelet volume is 12.9, platelet distribution width is 17.2, and my platelet to large cell ratio is 46. Also, my total RBC count is 5.81, the monocytes absolute count is 0.17, and basophils absolute count is 0.01. Plus, my Vitamin D3 level is 8.3, and HDL cholesterol is 31. I'm quite thin and trying to gain some weight, but I keep experiencing numbness in my legs and hands. Which specialist should I see about these issues, and are they treatable? I'm really looking for some guidance here.

Question

I've had chronic ITP since I was a kid and my platelets are usually low, like under 20000, but they've been stable at 80000 for a while now. I'm 23 and recently needed amoxicillin for a couple of weeks, which is when I started noticing some random bruising, like one on my thigh that's a few inches long. It's kind of freaking me out because I haven't experienced this in a bit and there are no other symptoms. Should I be worried about this?

Question

I'm dealing with a pretty low vitamin B12 level, around 72Pgml, and I've been having some back and shoulder pains. Sometimes I even feel a bit dizzy. Could this be linked to the low B12? What can I do to get it back to normal?
