Sir, my grandmother blood report shows a high number of WBCs, up to 17,000? She also has a fever all the time? Kindly suggest which specialist we should approach in this case? Thank you.

Persistent leukocytosis with fever suggests bacterial infection or possibly hematological malignancy. Please consult a Hematologist and take Blood Culture, CBC with Peripheral Smear.

Dr. Hema Suggests...

Take a PERIPHERAL SMEAR Test or Take a CULTURE AND SENSITIVITY - AEROBIC (BLOOD) Test

My report states evidence of a well defined anterior wall defect of approximately 20 mm seen at supra umbilical region with herniation of bowel loops. Is this dangerous? As I am having fever for a few days now and stomach discomfort too. Should I go for surgery? Is it safe?

I am 19 weeks pregnant. This is my blood report. In pregnancy, do these levels normally increase? Is it concerning? I have no previous history. Previously, I was on Duphaston and Texid. Currently, I am taking Ecosprin, LMWH 0.4 ml, Susten, and some multivitamins.

My period started on 5th January and the flow ended on 11th January. However, since then, I have been experiencing spotting once a day, every day. I am a bit concerned and would like to know if this is normal. I have attached my reports from the past few months for your reference.
