I've been really concerned because for the past year, my platelet count has been stuck between 70 and 100, and my MPV is over 14. I'm just trying to figure out what's going on with my body and how I can get my platelet levels back to normal. Any thoughts on what might be causing this?

View allI'm a 37-year-old guy weighing around 60 kg and I've been on enalapril 5 and met xl 12.5 tablets for my hypertension for the last six months. Recently, during a pre-employment medical checkup, I noticed that the RBC count and size in my blood report were highlighted as concerning by the doctor, but they didn't suggest any treatment. My family doctor is back in Kolkata while I'm currently in Oman. What should I do about this? Should I keep taking my meds as usual, or do I need to consider any other treatment or actions?
It's important to address the abnormal RBC count and size in your blood report. Since your family physician is not readily available, I recommend consulting with a local physician in Oman to further investigate the cause of the abnormal RBC findings. It's important to determine the underlying reason for this abnormality before making any changes to your current medication regimen. However, in the meantime, you can continue taking enalapril 5 and met xl 12.5 as prescribed for your hypertension. These medications help in managing high blood pressure effectively. Make sure to follow the dosage instructions provided by your healthcare provider.

I'm really worried about my wife. She's been having a fever every week and then we just saw in her blood report that her hemoglobin is pretty low, like 7.7. Could you help me understand what's going on with her?
Recurrent fever and low hemoglobin (7.7%) in your wife's blood report suggest an underlying condition that requires medical attention; possible causes include iron deficiency anemia, chronic infections, autoimmune disorders, or malignancies; consult a general physician to conduct further investigations, such as iron studies, vitamin B12 and folate levels, and imaging tests, to determine the underlying cause and develop an appropriate treatment plan.
