Hello doctor, I have lower back pain since evening, along with gastric issues and a lot of tiredness. I was COVID positive 5 months back and I am also a hypochondria patient. I read that lower back pain and tiredness can be related to blood cancer, which makes me scared. My blood report in February was normal. Please suggest genuine advice?

Symptoms are common. Anxiety may be worsening it. If previous blood tests were normal, no reason to panic.

Dr. Ezhilarasan Suggests...

Take a COMPLETE BLOOD COUNT (CBC) Test or Take a C-REACTIVE PROTEIN (CRP) - QUANTITATIVE Test

Sir, my grandmother blood report shows a high number of WBCs, up to 17,000? She also has a fever all the time? Kindly suggest which specialist we should approach in this case? Thank you.

My recent blood report shows hemoglobin of 10.1 g/dL, ESR of 15 mm/hr, PCV of 32.6 percent, Salmonella Typhi O at 1:80, Salmonella Typhi H at 1:80, and CRP at 16.3 IU/mL. I have been experiencing watery diarrhea and high fever for the past three days. Additionally, I underwent hip surgery with screws a month ago. Could this be stomach flu, or should I be concerned about typhoid or another infection?
