I've got my lab report back, and it's showing some high levels that I'm concerned about. My RBC count is at 5.57, the total leucocyte is 12.0, lymphocytes are at 52.8, and the absolute lymphocyte is sitting at 6.34. The high-sensitive C-reactive protein is 4.6 too. I've also had shoulder pain for the last week, which is why I got tested. Could you help me understand what these high levels mean? Should I be worried about my heart health with these results?

I'm feeling really worried because I've been having a high fever with shivering for the past two days, but it seems to get better when I take Paracetamol. On top of that, I've got this bad cough and a runny nose. It's been really tough dealing with it all at once. Is this something I should be concerned about? What could be causing these symptoms?

That looks like Flu,no need to worry consume balanced diet and stay hydrated,if it's becoming worse visit Physician for evaluation and treatment

I'm really concerned about my wife's health. She recently had an ESR test, and her result came back as 40mmhr. Could this indicate that she might have a TB infection? Also, I'm curious to know what the normal ESR range is when there's an infection involved.

An ESR (Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate) result of 40mmhr is elevated, indicating inflammation or infection, but it's not specific to TB; ESR can be elevated in various conditions, including infections, autoimmune disorders, and cancers; in infections, ESR can range from 20-100 mmhr, but a diagnosis of TB requires additional tests, such as chest X-ray, sputum smear, or PCR; consult a doctor to interpret the results and determine the next course of action.
