Accepted Answer

Your RBC and RDW being high, along with low MCH, MCV, and MCHC, might suggest some mild anemia or other factors affecting red blood cells. Since you're not experiencing symptoms, its likely not a serious concern, but it's a good idea to follow up with your doctor to understand the context of these results.

Accepted Answer

Considering your medical abortion on Dec 22, 2020, and subsequent periods on Feb 2 and Mar 6, it's likely that your body is recovering from the abortion.

_Possible reasons for stomach growth:_

1. _Bloating_: Hormonal changes after the abortion might cause water retention and bloating.
2. _Weight gain_: Emotional eating or changes in appetite after the abortion could lead to weight gain.
3. _Uterine enlargement_: Although unlikely, it's possible that your uterus is still enlarged from the pregnancy, causing your stomach to appear larger.

_Recommendations:_

1. _Wait and observe_: Monitor your symptoms and stomach growth over the next few weeks.
2. _Maintain a healthy lifestyle_: Focus on a balanced diet, regular exercise, and stress management.
3. _Consider a home pregnancy test with a sensitivity of 20 mIUmL_: To confirm the absence of pregnancy.

Question 6

I'm not feeling well since yesterday. I've been having a headache, feeling dizzy, experiencing body pains, and I'm just really weak overall. I already took Dolo 650, but it didn't help. What do you think I should do?

Accepted Answer

Given the persistence of your symptoms, including headache, dizziness, body pains, and weakness, despite taking Dolo 650, it's essential to consult a doctor to rule out underlying conditions like viral infections, sinusitis, or migraines; in the meantime, stay hydrated, rest, and consider taking a pain reliever like Paracetamol or Ibuprofen,
