So I'm trying to wrap my head around some recent blood test results and I'm a bit puzzled. My PDW and PLCR numbers seem pretty high, even though my platelet count is normal. The PDW is 19.2, PLCR is 52.5, and my platelet count is 210,000. Just as a reference, my platelet count was 255,000 back in August 2016. Should I be worried about the PDW and PLCR values? What could this mean for my overall health?

These values suggest that there may be some changes in the size and distribution of platelets in your blood. It could be due to various reasons such as inflammation, infection, or certain medical conditions. I would recommend further evaluation by a healthcare professional to determine the underlying cause and appropriate treatment.

I've been dealing with a vitamin B12 deficiency for a couple of months and started getting B12 injections weekly for six weeks. I just got my levels checked again, and now they're over 2000. Is this normal, or should I be worried? Also, I have some other blood work results like hemoglobin at 15, platelets at 346, and WBC at 7800. I'm curious if these are all interconnected somehow. What's going on with my blood tests?

I recently did a random blood test because I was feeling kind of light-headed, and the results got me a bit worried. My neutrophil count is at 80%, lymphocytes are at 15%, and my total WBC count is 10500. I'm 18, so I'm not sure if these numbers are normal for someone my age. Could you help me understand what this might mean?
