I have a query regarding my husband, Mr. Ashok Kadam latest test reports. The results show decreased size of the lymph node, LDH is 516, GGT is 13, and MCV is 38.4. I am concerned about whether these findings indicate any tissue damage or are affecting cell formation. How can we address this and bring these abnormal values back to normal?

LDH is slightly high (may reflect tissue stress), GGT normal, but MCV is very low (microcytosis). Suggest checking iron studies and review cause of lymph node issue.

Dr. Bhanu Suggests...

Take a IRON STUDIES (IRON + TIBC) Test or Take a COMPLETE BLOOD COUNT (CBC) Test

I have been experiencing fever for the past 4 days, with temperatures ranging from 99F to 102F. I do not have any other major symptoms, just the fever. I am sharing my lab report for your review.

Can we do a CBC test during a period?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

I have major health issues and my body is not becoming healthy like a normal body as per age. I used to take juice and also ate chicken etc but I see no effect of these protein diets. My weight is not increasing, my skin is becoming dull and I am facing weight loss. I am not getting a solution to this problem. What should I do to come out of this issue? I had also done all the x rays and some 2 to 3 mm stones were found in my report on the left side of my stomach.
