View allI'm worried because my wife's white blood cell count is really high, around 13,400. Could you take a look at the report and let us know what you think? We're unsure what this means and if it's something we should be concerned about.
A white blood cell (WBC) count of 13,400 is higher than the normal range of 4,500-11,000, indicating a possible infection, inflammation, or immune response

I'm worried about these blood clots in both my arms after the doctor had to prick them for a blood test. It's been pretty tough to find a vein, and now the arm that got pricked several times is bruised, tender, and moving it is painful. Should I be concerned about this, and is there anything I should do to help it heal or ease the pain?
To help with the blood clot and bruising, you can take over-the-counter pain relievers like ibuprofen to reduce pain and inflammation. Additionally, applying a cold compress to the bruised area can help with swelling. To promote healing and reduce tenderness, you can also apply a warm compress to the area. If the pain and bruising persist or worsen, it's important to follow up with your doctor.

I'm really concerned about my mom. She had Covid, but thankfully she recovered and tested negative about two weeks ago. However, we've noticed her D Dimer level is now 675mg. Is it normal for blood to become thicker after testing negative for Covid? Also, her CRP level is up to 10. Is there a chance of reinfection, or is this something else I should be worried about?
continue the covid tablets which your consultant given!! no need to recheck
