Please advise on the attached blood report and observations. Is this a serious infection? I have just started medicines for alopecia areata.

Without specific lab values, it is hard to confirm severity. If WBC, CRP, or ESR are raised, mild inflammation may be present. Alopecia areata is autoimmune; not usually due to infection.

Dr. Rohinipriyanka Suggests...

Take a CBC+ESR Test or Take a CRP Test (C - Reactive Protein) Test

Hi, I am 5 months pregnant with my first baby. In my recent blood test, my platelet count has risen to 700,000, and my WBC is 11,200, which seems high. My doctor has advised me to do PT, APTT, INR, and Hb electrophoresis and to consult a hematologist. This is the first time my platelet count has been elevated, my last report was completely normal. Could this change be related to pregnancy? I am unsure how to proceed and would like guidance, as all my other reports are normal.

I have received my medical test report online, and I noticed that some of the values are outside the normal reference range. I would appreciate it if a doctor could review the report, provide an overall assessment of my current health condition, and suggest any necessary steps or lifestyle changes I should take to improve and maintain good health.
