Question 1

I've noticed that my body temperature rises in the evening for an hour or so, then goes back to normal. It's not really a fever, just higher than it should be. I recently found out I have Microcytic anemia. Could there be a connection between the two? I could really use some guidance.

Accepted Answer

Elevated body temperature in the evening could be related to your Microcytic anemia. It is known that anemia can sometimes lead to a low-grade fever or increased body temperature. I recommend taking a fever reducer like Acetaminophen (Tylenol) 500mg as needed to help with the elevated temperature. However, it's important to consult with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management of your symptoms.

Question 2

I'm looking at my blood test results and noticed my lymphocytes absolute count is 3.13, whereas the reference range is between 1.0 and 3.0. I'm a bit concerned and curious about what lymphocytes are and why my count might be higher than the reference range. Could you guide me on what steps I should take next to understand this better?

Accepted Answer

go for another test

Question 3

I'm a bit worried about my health lately. I recently had a throat infection and although I'm feeling better now, my haemoglobin is at 9.5. My other CBC tests seem normal. I had a baby via cesarean section back in September 2016. Could you help me understand why my ESR levels might be increasing?

Accepted Answer

ESR can be raised in a lot of conditions of inflammation.
Need not worry about that.
You can take a tab. Livogen once a day after food for a month and have a high protein diet.
Consult a MD consultant physician in person for further evaluation and management.

I'm dealing with iron deficiency anemia and my doctor recommended a Ferium 1k infusion. I'm wondering how much my hemoglobin levels might go up after just one of these injections?
