I'm really worried about having high WBC levels and I'm scared it might be related to some kind of blood cancer. Could you let me know which type of doctor I should consult for this issue? I just want to make sure I'm talking to the right specialist.

View allI'm really worried about my wife. She's been having a fever every week and then we just saw in her blood report that her hemoglobin is pretty low, like 7.7. Could you help me understand what's going on with her?
Recurrent fever and low hemoglobin (7.7%) in your wife's blood report suggest an underlying condition that requires medical attention; possible causes include iron deficiency anemia, chronic infections, autoimmune disorders, or malignancies; consult a general physician to conduct further investigations, such as iron studies, vitamin B12 and folate levels, and imaging tests, to determine the underlying cause and develop an appropriate treatment plan.

Just got my blood test results back and noticed my PDW is 19, but the report says it should be between 9.6 and 15.2. What does this mean for me? I'm not sure what steps I should take next, and it's making me a bit anxious. Can you help me understand what I can do about it?
An elevated PDW (Platelet Distribution Width) may indicate platelet abnormalities or certain medical conditions. In this case, it is important to further investigate the underlying cause. I recommend consulting with a healthcare provider for a thorough evaluation. Depending on the underlying cause, treatment may include medications such as Aspirin or Clopidogrel to help regulate platelet function. The dosage and duration of treatment will be determined by your healthcare provider based on the specific diagnosis.
