Question 1

Question 3

I am a patient of endometriosis and panic anxiety disorder. I have been taking Dienogest for 2.5 years to control my endometriosis cysts, and over time the cysts are decreasing in size. My right ovarian cyst is 1 cm and my left ovarian cyst is 3.5 cm. For panic anxiety, my doctor gave me some blood tests and prescribed Rexipro 5 mg. After taking this medication, I no longer have anxiety problems and I feel almost normal. My test reports are as follows: T3: 0.97 ng/mL (0.58 to 1.59), T4: 7.34 mg/dL (4.87 to 11.72), TSH: 1.68 IU/mL (0.35 to 4.94), Glucose Fasting Plasma: 89 mg/dL (74 to 109), Urea: 13 mg/dL (17 to 43), Creatinine: 0.59 mg/dL (<0.95). My CBC results are mostly normal except the following: Hemoglobin: 13.7 gm/dL (11 to 14), Total Leucocyte Count: 12,000 /cumm (4000 to 11000), HCT: 43.2 Vol percent (33 to 42), RBC: 5.01 millions/cumm (3.8 to 4.8), MCHC: 31.7 gm/dL (32 to 36), Neutrophils: 80 percent (40 to 75), Lymphocytes: 17 percent (20 to 40), Monocytes: 1 percent (2 to 8), ESR: 30 mm (2 to 17). I am worried about some of my CBC parameters. Why are they not normal? Please help.
