Question 1

Nine years ago, I had an infection following a dog bite, which caused my eosinophils to increase significantly, and I was on bed rest for 8 months. Since then, I have been doing a CBC test every year. I have noticed that my WBC and platelets have been decreasing year after year, and I randomly experience body itching. My WBC and platelets have now fallen to the lower margins. Why is this happening? Does the infection from 9 years ago have any role in this, or is there some other reason? I have consulted many doctors and searched online, but I cannot understand the reason. Can anyone help me understand this?

Question 2

Good Evening, Doctor. My mother recent blood report shows an elevated PDW value. Should we be concerned and get it checked further? She is also going through menopause (her periods stopped around 4 months ago). Could this be related? I have attached the report for your review. Thank you in advance.

Question 3

I have a lymphocyte percentage of 41.5, a total RBC count of 6.47, hemoglobin level of 18.6 g/dL, and a hematocrit (PCV) of 52.08 percent. All these values are above the reference range mentioned in the report. Should I be concerned about these results?

Sir, my recent blood report shows a total WBC count of 23,000. I am experiencing fever and body aches. Please advise what I should do next

A WBC count of 23,000 indicates a possible bacterial infection or inflammation. Since you also have fever and body pain, this may need antibiotic treatment after proper evaluation. Please consult a doctor urgently for further diagnosis and to rule out any serious infections.
