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?

I've noticed my hematocrit level is at 51.1, and I'm starting to worry. My hemoglobin is 17.1 and RBC count is 5.89. Lately, I've been experiencing shortness of breath and constant dizziness. Should I be concerned about these symptoms?

A hematocrit level of 51.1% is slightly above the normal range (40.7-50.3% for males, 36.1-44.3% for females), indicating potential polycythemia, a condition characterized by excessive red blood cell production; combined with your high hemoglobin (17.1 gdL) and RBC count (5.89 millionL), this may explain your symptoms of shortness of breath and dizziness; consult a md medicine for further evaluation and potential treatment to reduce your risk of blood clots and other complications.

I'm really concerned about my cousin. He had typhoid last year, and ever since, his platelet count has been dropping randomly, sometimes getting as low as 60k. It's weird because he doesn't have a fever or feel any other symptoms. We're all pretty worried about what's causing this fluctuation in his platelets. Do you have any idea what might be going on, and what we should do next?
