I'm Covid positive but haven't had any symptoms until now. Suddenly, I've got a fever with chills that last for about 30 seconds, loose motion, body ache, and my SPO2 levels are fluctuating between 95 and 98. What should I do?

View allI'm really worried because I've had a fever for the past 5 days, and after seeing a doctor, I found out that my white blood cell count is down to 2300 and my platelets are at 0.81 lakhs. I did a dengue test today, and it came back positive, but I haven't noticed any improvement yet. My doctor mentioned something about starting treatment on the 5th day. Can you please help me understand what kind of treatment to expect for dengue?
Hi there I understand your concern... There is no specific treatment for dengue its just supportive and symptomatic...treatment is mainly to reduce fever, prevent dehydration and to observe patient carefully...if you are not having spontaneous bleeding nothing to worry... Just consult nearest physician and get your platelets checked daily as count bellow 20k may lead to dengue shock syndrome in that case you will require platelets transfusion...

I've noticed my total protein level is 8.6, with albumin at 4.5 and globulin at 4.1. Should I be worried about these elevated protein levels? Do you think its necessary for me to consult a doctor about this?
With a total protein of 8.6, albumin of 4.5, and globulin of 4.1, your protein levels are actually within the normal range (total protein: 6.4-8.9 gdL, albumin: 3.5-5.5 gdL, globulin: 2.0-3.5 gdL), so consultation with a doctor may not be necessary unless you have underlying medical conditions or symptoms that warrant further evaluation.

Detecting Fetal Heartbeat with Doppler Device at 17 Weeks _General Guidelines_ 1. _Typical detection time_: Fetal heartbeat can usually be detected with a Doppler device between 9-12 weeks of pregnancy. 2. _17 weeks is a good time_: At 17 weeks, the fetal heartbeat should be easily detectable with a Doppler device. _Factors Affecting Detection_ 1. _Fetal position_: If the fetus is positioned with its back towards the mother's abdomen, the heartbeat might be harder to detect. 2. _Maternal body type_: Women with a higher BMI might require a more advanced Doppler device or a transvaginal ultrasound. 3. _Device quality_: The quality and sensitivity of the Doppler device can impact detection. _Tips for Successful Detection_ 1. _Use a high-quality Doppler device_: Ensure the device is specifically designed for fetal heartbeat detection. 2. _Follow the manufacturer's instructions_: Properly position the device and adjust the settings as recommended. 3. _Try different positions_: Move the device around the abdomen to find the best spot to detect the fetal heartbeat.
