View allSo, my dad is 59 and he's had this high d-dimer level at 1.82. He got over COVID about 47 days back. Just after he got discharged, we checked, and the d-dimer was at 0.5, but now it's jumped to 1.82. Plus, his white blood cells went down from 10,000 to 4,000 over these weeks. Is this something we should be really worried about? Can you suggest any treatment or ideas on what's going on?

I'm 20 years old and I'm wondering if it's okay for me to drink Ensure powder since I'm anemic. Can this help with my condition?
Yes, you can drink Ensure powder drink at the age of 20. Ensure is a nutritional supplement that can help meet your daily nutrient requirements. Since you mentioned you are anemic, Ensure can be beneficial as it contains iron which is important for managing anemia. You can take one serving of Ensure powder drink per day to supplement your diet and help improve your nutritional status.
