I'm really concerned about my brother. His CBC report shows elevated neutrophils at 7.59, low lymphocytes at 17, eosinophils at 0.54, TLC is at 10.3, and his RBC count is 4.45. The other day he fainted after being outside in the heat. What could be causing this? I'm quite worried and just want to understand what's going on.

Hey, I just got my CBC results and I'm a bit confused about what they mean. My haemoglobin is 15.9 gdL, and my total WBC count is 7550. The breakdown is Neutrophils at 72, Lymphocytes at 22, Monocytes at 4, Eosinophils at 2, and Basophils at 0. My RBC count is 6.01, and the HCT is 51.7. The MCV is 86.0 fl, MCH 26.5 pg, and MCHC 30.8 gdL, with RDW at 14.3. Platelet count came out to 285. The remarks said "Normocytic Normochromic blood picture." Can you help me understand if everythings okay or if theres anything I need to be worried about?
Everything is within normal range no significant abnormality noted.

My wife is 26 and we're planning on having kids soon, but her haemoglobin level is pretty low. It went from 7.9 last month to 8.7 now. She's already eating lentils, beans, an apple, milk, groundnuts, and spinach juice every day. Plus, she's on a routine diet of chapatis with veg curry and rice. Do you think her current diet is enough to boost her haemoglobin levels? How long does it usually take to get back to a normal level? Should we consider some injections if diet alone isn't improving things fast enough?
