I'm curious about what the normal body temperature is. I've been feeling okay, but sometimes my body temp goes slightly above 37C. I've taken the RT-PCR test twice and they both came back negative. My D-dimer and CRP levels were also normal. I also took a dengue test which was negative, but my platelet count was low at 117,000. Could this low platelet count be causing a fever?

View allI'm really concerned because I've been diagnosed with DVT in my left leg and my homocysteine level is 60.2. Does the high level of homocysteine directly cause the DVT? What should I be doing to manage this situation?
Elevated homocysteine levels can be a risk factor for developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT). To help lower your homocysteine levels and reduce the risk of DVT, you can take folic acid, vitamin B6, and vitamin B12 supplements. I recommend taking Tab Folvite 5mg once daily, Tab Pyridoxine 50mg once daily, and Tab Nurokind Plus once daily. However, it is important to consult with your healthcare provider for proper evaluation and management.

I'm really worried about my wife. She's been having a fever every week and then we just saw in her blood report that her hemoglobin is pretty low, like 7.7. Could you help me understand what's going on with her?
Recurrent fever and low hemoglobin (7.7%) in your wife's blood report suggest an underlying condition that requires medical attention; possible causes include iron deficiency anemia, chronic infections, autoimmune disorders, or malignancies; consult a general physician to conduct further investigations, such as iron studies, vitamin B12 and folate levels, and imaging tests, to determine the underlying cause and develop an appropriate treatment plan.

I'm a bit concerned after getting my blood test results. My hemoglobin level showed up at 17.7, which I've read could mean I have polycythemia. Do you think I should see a specialist about this? And if so, what kind of specialist would be the right one to get in touch with? I'm also curious about what might be causing this condition.
A hemoglobin level of 17.7 is indeed high and may indicate polycythemia, a condition that requires medical attention; it's essential to consult a specialist, specifically a hematologist (blood disorder specialist), to confirm the diagnosis, rule out underlying causes such as chronic hypoxia, sleep apnea, or kidney tumors, and develop a treatment plan to prevent potential complications like blood clots and strokes.
