I'm dealing with acute pharyngitis and my doctor has me on Augpen three times a day, LCZ Plus twice, and Betadine gargles. But since starting these, I've been feeling super lethargic and drowsy. Is there something else I can take or do to help with this drowsiness?

I've been having these mild cold symptoms that seem viral and maybe a bit allergic, like a runny nose and sneezing a lot for the past 10 days. My doctor suggested a blood test, including CRP, CBC, SGPT, SGOT, and Ferritin, to check if these could indicate COVID-19. All my blood test results came back normal except my Basophils Count is at 0, PCT at 0.187, and SGOT (AST Serum IFCC) at 50. I'm curious, is this blood test enough to understand what's going on, or should I consider a RAT for COVID or even a CT scan? I'm feeling a bit unsure about the next steps and would appreciate your advice.

No they don't indicate presence or absence of COVID,Visit your doctor for evaluation and appropriate management

I've been dealing with a mild fever, body aches, and loose motions for the last couple of days. It's not constant, but it does keep coming back. I took a couple of doses of Nicip, which helped for a while, but today the loose motions and fever are back, and I just feel really low on energy. What could be causing this recurring pattern, and should I be concerned about anything specific?

Could be a viral infection causing gastroenteritis. To help with your symptoms, you can take a combination of medicines. You can take Tab. Paracetamol 500mg for fever and bodyache, along with Tab. Loperamide 2mg for loose motions. Make sure to stay hydrated by drinking plenty of fluids and consider taking ORS (Oral Rehydration Solution) to replenish lost electrolytes. If your symptoms persist or worsen, please seek medical attention.

I'm dealing with a really bothersome sore throat after having COVID, and I'm considering taking Azithromycin 500mg. Should I be taking it once or twice every day? I'm just not sure what the daily dosage should be for an adult like me. Would love your guidance on this.

Your morning yellow urine is likely due to concentrated urine from overnight dehydration. Drinking 5-6 liters of water daily is excellent, but consider having a glass of water before bedtime. Consult a Nephrologist or Urologist to rule out any underlying kidney or urinary tract issues. Also, address your digestion problems, as they might be linked to your urine color. In the meantime, monitor your urine color and output, and keep your doctor informed. A simple urine test (Urine Routine Examination) can help determine if there's an underlying issue.
