A platelet count of 1 lakh during pregnancy is considered relatively normal and usually isn't a cause for major concern.

Question

I'm a bit worried about the results of my ultrasound-guided FNAC on my left cervical neck. The report mentions polymorphous lymphoid cell population, which includes mature lymphocytes, centrocytes, controllers, and histiocytes, but no granuloma or necrosis was seen. It's noted as reactive lymphoid hyperplasia. I've already completed a 7-day course of Augmentin, but Im uncertain what my next steps should be or what kind of treatment is needed. Can you help clarify this for me?

Question

I'm a 32-year-old male, and during a comprehensive test I found out that my Vitamin B12 level is at 1892 pgml. For the past 7 years, I've been taking a combination of methylcobalamin 1500 mcg with pyridoxin and folic acid because my homocysteine levels were high at 15.55. Can you help me understand why my Vitamin B12 level is elevated? Is it okay for me to keep taking these tablets, or could there be any issues with high Vitamin B12 levels? Everything else in my reports looks good. Would love your advice on this.

Question

I'm really concerned about these red pin prick spots that have appeared under my skin on my legs, and on each leg, there's a big purple and yellow bruise. I also noticed some tiny patches of these pin pricks on my fingers. Plus, I've had a headache on and off for the last two days. Could this be something serious? What should I do?
