I've been feeling okay, no fever or injuries, but I'm still a bit concerned. I recently got my blood work done, and my white blood cell count is at 11.8k and platelet count is 11.5 lakh. Not sure if this is something to worry about. What could be causing these numbers to be on the higher side?

Your bilirubin levels show a mild elevation, which can be caused by various factors such as:
Liver inflammation or injury Hemolytic anemia Gilbert's syndrome
Your ASTSGOT and ASTSGPT levels are slightly elevated, indicating mild liver stress.
Consult your doctor to discuss the results and determine the underlying cause.

I'm a bit worried about my recent CBC screening results. My Hemoglobin is at 17.5, PCV is 53.2, and RBC is 6.1. Plus, my Vitamin B12 level is 1338, and Vitamin D is 36.58. About a month ago, my doctor gave me Bonicor Capsules and Neurobion Forte injections. I don't smoke and I make sure to drink 4 liters of water every day. Should I be concerned about these numbers? Could this be something serious?
"In your CBC screening results, your Hemoglobin level of 17.5, PCV of 53.2, and RBC count of 6.1 are slightly elevated, which could indicate conditions like polycythemia. Your Vitamin B12 level of 1338 is within normal range, and your Vitamin D level of 36.58 is slightly low. The medications you mentioned, Bonicor Capsules and Neurobion Forte injection, are commonly prescribed for conditions like anemia and vitamin deficiencies. Since you are a non-smoker and drink an adequate amount of water daily, your elevated blood counts may need further evaluation to rule out any underlying causes. I would recommend discussing these results with your doctor for further assessment and management."

I'm dealing with a pretty low vitamin B12 level, around 72Pgml, and I've been having some back and shoulder pains. Sometimes I even feel a bit dizzy. Could this be linked to the low B12? What can I do to get it back to normal?
To address a low vitamin B12 level of 72 pgmL, consider the following steps: consult your doctor about starting vitamin B12 supplements, either orally or through injections, aiming for a daily dose of 2.4-2.6 mcg; increase dietary intake of B12-rich foods, such as fish, meat, poultry, eggs, dairy products, and fortified plant-based milk; and address potential underlying causes of deficiency, such as gastrointestinal disorders or medication interactions; regarding symptoms, yes, low B12 levels can cause back and shoulder pain, dizziness, fatigue, and numbness or tingling sensations, so correcting the deficiency may help alleviate these symptoms.
