My grandmother recent blood reports show the following, sodium level is 119, CRP is 238, and postprandial blood sugar is 582. She also has hypothyroidism and is currently on medication for ischemic heart disease, cholesterol, and hypertension. She is extremely weak and has lost her appetite. Are these report values very serious, and what should be done next?

Very low sodium, high CRP and sugar indicate critical condition. Needs hospital care, electrolyte correction, infection control. Monitor closely.

Dr. Kamran Suggests...

Take a RENAL PROFILE/KIDNEY FUNCTION TEST (RFT/KFT) Test or Take a C-REACTIVE PROTEIN (CRP) - QUANTITATIVE Test

I had viral fever 3 days ago. My initial blood report showed CRP level at 24 mg/L. I received a high dosage of antibiotics through IV for the last 3 days. I repeated the CRP test and it came at 25.5. I am very concerned why the CRP level is still high. Can this be a cause of something serious?

This is my blood report. Can I have a cardiac arrest at any moment? Are my results a matter of concern? My report shows Lipoprotein A: 53 mg/dl, HS CRP: 4.3 mg/L, Total Cholesterol: 222 mg/dl, Triglycerides: 212 mg/dl, VLDL Cholesterol: 42.48 mg/dl, Non HDL Cholesterol: 172.2 mg/dl, and TSH: 6.93. I am also hypertensive.

My baby is having fever and when tested, the blood report showed a CRP level of around 28. I want to know what can be done so that it comes under 10, as under 10 is considered normal. Are there any fruits or vegetables my baby can eat? Or any syrup or tablet that can help bring it under control? Please advise.
