I'm a bit worried because I just got my blood test results back, and my PDW is 25.5. The report says the normal range is between 9.6 and 15.2. What should I do next? Should I be concerned about this?

View allI just got my blood test results back, and it shows that my absolute basophil count is 0 and my lymphocytes are at 41. Should I be worried? Is this something serious or pretty normal? I'm a little anxious about what these numbers might mean for my health.

My wife is 26 and we're planning on having kids soon, but her haemoglobin level is pretty low. It went from 7.9 last month to 8.7 now. She's already eating lentils, beans, an apple, milk, groundnuts, and spinach juice every day. Plus, she's on a routine diet of chapatis with veg curry and rice. Do you think her current diet is enough to boost her haemoglobin levels? How long does it usually take to get back to a normal level? Should we consider some injections if diet alone isn't improving things fast enough?

My dad's been dealing with aplastic anemia for about six months now, and he's 60 years old. Even with the medication, it seems like his body isn't making new blood cells, and we're really worried about it. Could you suggest where we might find better treatment options or what else we could do to help his condition?
