Question 1

My lab report shows S. Typhi O titer at 1:120 and H titer at 1:40. Could you please explain what this means? Do I have typhoid fever? Also, how long does it typically take to recover if I am infected?

Question 2

Does the below test report indicate any potential problems during pregnancy? My haemoglobin and RBC count are lower than normal, while the WBC count is higher than the normal range. Additionally, the urine test shows a trace amount of sugar. I would like to know if these values being outside the normal range could cause any complications during pregnancy.

Question 3

My mother is 51 years old and has been experiencing heavy bleeding for more than 20 days. The heavy bleeding was temporarily controlled with Tranostat tablets prescribed by the doctor, but the bleeding does not stop completely within 7 days, and when it does stop, her next period starts again within 3 weeks. Her haemoglobin level is 9.2, and her weight is 58 kg. Uterus scan and thyroid tests showed no abnormalities. What should be done further to stop this bleeding? The doctor mentioned that D and C may not help in stopping the bleeding, but they can be done if needed. Is a hysterectomy (removing the uterus) the only option?

Recurrent nosebleeds may be due to fragile nasal vessels. Continue Botroclot if needed, use humidifier, avoid nose picking. ENT exam is advised to rule out local causes.
