Question

I'm really low on B12 and I'm wondering what medications I should be taking. Also, can you tell me what Folcure 5 is used for and if there's any reason I should consider Matilda ForteHosit? I'm just trying to figure out the best way to handle this.

Question

I've been having problems with sleep disorders and noticed my skin's looking pretty pale. My doctor suggested I get a CBC, and while my hemoglobin is usually around 11, it dropped to 7.4 this time. The doctor couldn't believe the CBC report and asked me to redo it. The next morning, it went down to 7 with platelets at 629. I also had an abdomen pelvis ultrasound, but everything came back normal. Now, doctors keep passing me off to someone else. What could be going on?

Question

I'm really concerned about my lymphocytes. They've jumped from 14 to 44 in just a month. I don't have any lumps or red patches, but I'm getting infections and bleeding easily. My vitamin D is super low too, just at 5. Should I be worried about these increasing lymphocyte levels? What's causing it?

Question

I'm a bit worried about my fianc's haemoglobin levels. Just last month, it was at 16.5, and now it has jumped to 17.5. He found out when he tried to donate blood, and they suggested he see a doctor about why his haemoglobin might be increasing. Can you help us understand why this might be happening and how we can get it back to normal levels?
