I'm wondering if it's normal for someone to catch a cold while they're recovering from jaundice. Does this mean the jaundice is getting better, or could it be something else? Would love to get your thoughts on this.

I'm wondering if fasting is necessary for a Vitamin B12 blood test. I had mine done about 3 hours after lunch, and now I'm second-guessing whether that might have affected the results. Should I think about getting it retested?

A Vitamin B12 blood test does not typically require fasting. It is usually safe to have the test done at any time of the day, regardless of when you last ate. Since you had the test done 3+ hours after lunch, there is no need for a retest. The results should still provide valuable information about your Vitamin B12 levels.

I'm feeling a bit feverish on and off for the last three days, even though when I check my temperature, it's normal, around 96 to 98. I've also been taking antioxidants and multivitamins for a month now. Could there be a connection, or should I be worried about something else going on?

It sounds like you may be experiencing intermittent fever episodes despite having a normal body temperature reading. This could be due to various reasons such as underlying infections or inflammatory conditions. Since you have been taking antioxidants and multivitamins for a month without improvement, I recommend you consult a doctor for further evaluation and possible testing

I'm a bit worried about taking Augmentin 625 because I read somewhere that if you've had jaundice in the past, you should let your doctor know. I had jaundice around 15 years back, but I've just finished dealing with chicken pox two weeks ago and now I've got this boil. Do you think it's safe for me to go ahead with Augmentin?

yes you can take
