I've been feeling a bit worried and wanted to get your insight. I'm a 52-year-old female, and its been about 20 days since I had COVID. My recent tests showed a CRP level of 47 and ESR at 52. During the COVID illness, my ESR was at 50 but CRP was lower, like 0.20, 0.60, and then 3. Now it's at 46 after a week, and my D-dimer is reading 610. Should I be worried about these results? Would love to know what this could mean.

View allCan I take a Dart tablet if I got my first Covaxin dose 12 days ago and I'm experiencing a headache? I usually rely on Dart for relief when I get headaches. Just wondering if it's safe now.
It is generally safe to take Dart tablet for headache after receiving the Covaxin vaccine. The Dart tablet contains Paracetamol which is commonly used for headache relief. You can take 500mg to 1000mg of Paracetamol every 4 to 6 hours as needed for headache.

I'm really curious about the term "Forte" that's used in so many medicine brand names. Like, I've noticed meds called Benfomet Forte, Nexito Forte, and even Becozyme C Forte. They all seem to end with Forte, and I think it might mean something like "Plus" or maybe indicate a combination of ingredients. Am I on the right track here, or does it mean something else? Just trying to understand it better.
"Forte" is a Latin word meaning "strong" or "potent," but in the context of medication names, it typically indicates a stronger or higher-dose version of a medication, often a combination product, so your understanding of "Forte" being similar to "Plus" is generally correct.

Can I safely continue taking Vizylac Rich twice a day, one in the morning and one at night, for the rest of my life? I've been using this for a month now and I feel stronger, but I'm worried about any long-term effects.
You may feel strong, as it eliminates diarrhoea with the help of the good bacteria .. Until otherwise, prescribed by a doctor., kindly dont consume any medication on ur own, for life long..
