My 27 year old daughter had viral fever on Monday. After three days, the fever went away, but she is still suffering from a persistent cough. Her blood report and chest X ray are normal. She has taken many medicines and syrups, but the cough has not improved. The doctor said there is an infection in her throat. Please suggest what we should do next.

Likely post viral throat irritation or bronchitis. Steam inhalation, voice rest, and soothing syrups may help. If dry cough persists beyond 2 weeks, re evaluation needed.

View allI am a patient of endometriosis and panic anxiety disorder. I have been taking Dienogest for 2.5 years to control my endometriosis cysts, and over time the cysts are decreasing in size. My right ovarian cyst is 1 cm and my left ovarian cyst is 3.5 cm. For panic anxiety, my doctor gave me some blood tests and prescribed Rexipro 5 mg. After taking this medication, I no longer have anxiety problems and I feel almost normal. My test reports are as follows: T3: 0.97 ng/mL (0.58 to 1.59), T4: 7.34 mg/dL (4.87 to 11.72), TSH: 1.68 IU/mL (0.35 to 4.94), Glucose Fasting Plasma: 89 mg/dL (74 to 109), Urea: 13 mg/dL (17 to 43), Creatinine: 0.59 mg/dL (<0.95). My CBC results are mostly normal except the following: Hemoglobin: 13.7 gm/dL (11 to 14), Total Leucocyte Count: 12,000 /cumm (4000 to 11000), HCT: 43.2 Vol percent (33 to 42), RBC: 5.01 millions/cumm (3.8 to 4.8), MCHC: 31.7 gm/dL (32 to 36), Neutrophils: 80 percent (40 to 75), Lymphocytes: 17 percent (20 to 40), Monocytes: 1 percent (2 to 8), ESR: 30 mm (2 to 17). I am worried about some of my CBC parameters. Why are they not normal? Please help.
