I'm kind of worried about whether it's okay to get a tetanus shot every month just to be safe. Could you let me know if that's alright or if there's something I should be concerned about?

View allI'm really concerned because even though I tested negative for COVID on April 12, I'm still feeling awful. My chest feels congested, and there's this constant heaviness in my head. Plus, my legs ache all the time and I feel fatigued throughout the day. I've had an X-ray and a CT scan, and they both show my lungs are clear, but I'm not sure what else could be going on. Could you help me understand what's happening?

I've been dealing with some lingering symptoms after testing negative for COVID. It's been 26 days since I initially tested positive, but I'm still experiencing a mild fever, mild cough, and body aches. I noticed my CRP levels are at 4.4, which is double what they were before I had COVID. I'm just wondering, what should I do about this?

I've been told by my doctor to get both an ESR and a CBC done. But a friend mentioned that ESR is actually a part of the CBC or Complete Hemogram. Can you clarify this for me? I'm a bit confused and want to make sure I understand what tests I need.
ESR (Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate) is not a part of CBC (Complete Blood Count) or Complete Hemogram, although both tests are often ordered together; ESR measures the rate at which red blood cells settle in a test tube, indicating inflammation or infection, whereas CBC provides a broader analysis of blood components, including red and white blood cell counts, hemoglobin, and platelets.
