Question 1

Hello, this is Saikrishna Nagunuri. Recently I have given my blood and urine samples for a regular check-up. In the blood report they mentioned normochromic and normocytic. Blood sugar level in fasting is also on the borderline. I had food late at night and waited on an empty stomach for some time to give samples. In the urine report they mentioned reduced sugar and protein trace. Please find the attached reports and suggest if any diet or medication needs to be followed. As I am a software professional, I worked long hours for the last two weeks due to heavy workload. Most of my job involves sitting for long hours. These days I am feeling fatigue after work and also feeling drowsy. Thank you in advance. Regards, Saikrishna.

Why do you have to fast for 14 hours before a blood test?

Question 3

I am 16 years old and my weight is 81 kg. I am a PCOS patient. I did a lipid profile test, and some values are slightly increased. I am attaching my report for reference. Please check and tell me if anything is serious. Also, my ESR is a bit high at 67, while the normal range is 0 to 30. Please tell me if this is anything serious?

My creatinine is 1.4, my blood sugar is increased, and my blood pressure is 147 by 90. My urine report is normal. Please tell me if my kidneys are normal or not?

Your creatinine is mildly elevated. Combined with high BP and sugar, this may indicate early kidney stress, even if urine is normal. It is important to keep your blood pressure and sugar under strict control to protect your kidneys. Please consult a doctor for long-term management.
