My recent blood report shows hemoglobin of 10.1 g/dL, ESR of 15 mm/hr, PCV of 32.6 percent, Salmonella Typhi O at 1:80, Salmonella Typhi H at 1:80, and CRP at 16.3 IU/mL. I have been experiencing watery diarrhea and high fever for the past three days. Additionally, I underwent hip surgery with screws a month ago. Could this be stomach flu, or should I be concerned about typhoid or another infection?

Question

I am not sure if I have gallstones or not, but I am frequently having bowel problems, lethargy, and exhaustion. I have done LFT, and my report is normal. But sometimes I feel slight pain in my right rib bone if I press it. Last year in March, I did USG, and everything was okay. Now I am worried again.

Question

Hi, I am 5 months pregnant with my first baby. In my recent blood test, my platelet count has risen to 700,000, and my WBC is 11,200, which seems high. My doctor has advised me to do PT, APTT, INR, and Hb electrophoresis and to consult a hematologist. This is the first time my platelet count has been elevated, my last report was completely normal. Could this change be related to pregnancy? I am unsure how to proceed and would like guidance, as all my other reports are normal.
