What blood type is rarest?

Im really confused about my dads D-dimer levels after his COVID recovery. His first test showed 1800, but we didnt find out until five days later. He wasnt showing any clotting symptoms, so we checked with a doctor who recommended blood thinners. We decided to get another test done at a more reliable lab two days later and it came back at 160. He had been taking dabigatran 150 BD during those two days. We re-tested after 15 days, and the D-dimer was 180. Im trying to figure out if the blood thinner could have caused such a big drop from 1800 to 160, or if its safe to just disregard the first test as incorrect and stop the meds. Could you help me understand whats going on?

Physician opinion is advised to the patient.

My wife has been dealing with blood clots for a while now and keeps having blackouts frequently. The doctors said surgery isn't safe because it could lead to paralysis. I'm really worried and wondering if there's any effective ayurvedic treatment that could help her condition.

If surgery is risky, explore Ayurvedic therapies for blood clots—but get regular allopathic monitoring and avoid delays.

I'm a bit worried because my recent blood test showed that I have mild eosinophilia, and my monocytes count is right at the upper limits. Here are some more details: Neutrophils are at 47, lymphocytes are 33, eosinophils are 9, monocytes are 10, and basophils are 1. The absolute counts are 4400 for neutrophils, 3000 for lymphocytes, 900 for eosinophils, and 1000 for monocytes. Also, my platelet count is 269,000. Could you help me understand what this might mean for my health? Should I be concerned about these levels?
