I've just gone through my general health check-up, and while everything seems normal, my lymphocytes are at 48, and the absolute lymphocyte count is 3312. Should I be worried about these high lymphocyte levels, or is this considered normal?

A negative HPT (Home Pregnancy Test) 4 days after IUI doesn't necessarily mean you're not pregnant. Possible reasons for a false negative: 1. _Too early_: HCG levels might not be high enough to detect. 2. _Insufficient HCG sensitivity_: HPT sensitivity varies; some tests might not detect low HCG levels. 3. _Diluted urine_: If you drank excessive water before testing, your urine might be too diluted. Wait a few more days (around 7-10 days post-IUI) and try testing again. If you're still unsure, consult your fertility specialist for guidance.

Question

I'm really worried about my wife who's got dengue. Her platelet count was initially at 52,000, but then it dropped to 18,000, which led us to get her admitted and she had a platelet transfusion. Since then, her platelet counts have been creeping upfirst 28,000, then 36,000, and now it's at 47,000. I'm confused because I thought after a transfusion, her platelets would increase more quickly. Is this normal or should I be concerned about how slowly they're going up?

Question

I'm trying to understand my blood test results and I'm a bit confused about some of the terms. It mentions that my RBC is normocytic normochromic with mild anisopoikilocytosis and that my WBC has a lymphocytic predominance with mild eosinophilia. The report also says that my platelets are adequate on the smear. Could you help explain what this all means? I'm feeling a bit worried about these findings.
