My father has a wet cough and seems weak. His blood report shows neutrophilic leucocytosis, and his lymphocyte count is 12.3. Is this a serious condition, or is it a normal response to a cold?

Neutrophilic leucocytosis with high lymphocytes and wet cough suggests an active infection, which is possibly viral or bacterial. Not usually serious, but needs antibiotics if bacterial.

Hello Doctor, for the past three days, I have been experiencing nausea (especially when standing), numbness throughout my body, a constant cold feeling in my feet, excessive sleepiness (I sleep around 18 hours a day), a dry throat, and loss of appetite due to food tasting different. On the first day of these symptoms, I visited a doctor who gave me an injection and advised me to get a blood test, which I have attached here. He also mentioned that my blood pressure has been consistently low, around 70, for two consecutive days. I am feeling very uneasy and worried.
