I'm worried about my wife's health because her Hb level is at 8.1, and she's feeling weak a lot. Sometimes she struggles with her daily tasks. Could you advise on how to improve her Hb level? Also, she mentions she has difficulty seeing things that are a bit far even though she's using high-quality glasses recommended by an eye specialist. What do you suggest?

View allI've been dealing with dengue and was in the hospital about 10 days ago. My platelet count was really low, around 68,000, but by the time I was discharged, it had gone up to 1.2 lakh. Since then, I've been on medication and doing regular CBC checks. The numbers have been climbing quite a bit: 2.5 lakh at the first check, 4.28 lakh at the second, and today it's at 5.1 lakh. Is it okay for my platelets to be this high, or should I be worried about it?
Your increasing platelet count, now at 5.1 lakh, after recovering from dengue fever, is likely a rebound effect, which is a common phenomenon after the body has fought off the infection;

I'm really concerned about my hemoglobin levels. In July, my HB was at 8.7, and now it's dropped to 5.8. I've already done all the blood-related tests, but they haven't shown any issues. I'm wondering if drinking red wine could help increase my hemoglobin. What do you think?
Red wine can provide some iron, but it's not a reliable or significant source to increase hemoglobin. If your hemoglobin is very low, it's important to focus on iron-rich foods, supplements, and follow up with your doctor to find the underlying cause.
