A negative RT PCR with COVID like symptoms may still require rest and care. CT scan can show lung changes, even if mild. Recovery often happens with supportive care.

Dr. Dhankecha Suggests...

Take a CRP Test (C - Reactive Protein) Test or Take a CBC Test (Complete Blood Count) Test

Book CRP Test (C - Reactive Protein) Test Book CBC Test (Complete Blood Count) Test

My recent CBC blood test report shows PDW of 17.1, WBC of 11.4 (normal range is 4 to 9), and HCT of 41.8 (normal range is 34 to 38). Could you please advise me on what these results indicate and provide your valuable suggestion?

My mother is 57 years old and has been receiving treatment at AIIMS Hospital for the past 17 years. She was fine until a month ago, but since then, she has developed a dry cough. She has taken all the medicines prescribed by the AIIMS doctor, but there has been no improvement. Her blood report is normal. The cough is not continuous, but when it starts, it becomes unstoppable for a while. Because of the cough, she also feels pain in her throat. She is taking a cough syrup called Grilinctus. Please suggest what we should do.

Please clarify my report. Is my CBC report normal or not? Can you also clarify my thyroid test report? Is there any problem?
