Hello Doctor, for the past three days, I have been experiencing nausea (especially when standing), numbness throughout my body, a constant cold feeling in my feet, excessive sleepiness (I sleep around 18 hours a day), a dry throat, and loss of appetite due to food tasting different. On the first day of these symptoms, I visited a doctor who gave me an injection and advised me to get a blood test, which I have attached here. He also mentioned that my blood pressure has been consistently low, around 70, for two consecutive days. I am feeling very uneasy and worried.

These symptoms can suggest dehydration, low sugar or vitamin deficiency. A basic health panel including electrolytes, blood sugar, and vitamin B12 would be useful to guide further treatment.

Hi, I have attached my blood report, which shows mild lymphocytosis and high cholesterol. Could you please review the report and suggest which foods I should avoid and which healthy foods I should include in my diet?

Sir, I am 23 years old and have been suffering from indigestion for the past one year. I do not have any fever. My blood test results are: Hemoglobin is 10.10, TLC is 19200, Polymorphs is 83, Lymphocytes is 15, Monocytes is 01. The rest, including eosinophils, basophils, RBC count, platelet count, and ESR, are within the reference range. Could you please suggest what this indicates and what I should do?

Hi, I am 5 months pregnant with my first baby. In my recent blood test, my platelet count has risen to 700,000, and my WBC is 11,200, which seems high. My doctor has advised me to do PT, APTT, INR, and Hb electrophoresis and to consult a hematologist. This is the first time my platelet count has been elevated, my last report was completely normal. Could this change be related to pregnancy? I am unsure how to proceed and would like guidance, as all my other reports are normal.
