Patient's Query
Hello doctor,
I am a 48 year old male. My height is 5.5 ft and I weigh 176 lbs. Currently, I am not suffering with any disease and not taking any medication. I am a non-smoker, teetotaler, vegetarian and walk every morning 1 - 2 miles, with three days of 40 minutes yoga practice. I require your medical diagnosis based on the recently done blood tests and action to be taken. Any recommendations would be helpful. I have attached my blood test report.
Hi,
Welcome to icliniq.com. We are here to help you. I have evaluated your reports and there are no specific high alarming statuses in the reports (attachment removed to protect patient identity). The rise in hs-CRP (high-sensitivity C-reactive protein) and lipoprotein have been used as marker of heart attack risks. If you are a smoker or alcoholic then this is significant, else just get an ECG (electrocardiogram) done. I would also recommend you to get an ultrasound abdomen and hepatitis B and C checked as you have deranged liver function. You also might be having associated vitamin B12 deficiency causing rise in MCV (mean corpuscular volume). So, get the investigations done and write back with reports.
Patient's Query
Hello doctor,
Many thanks for a fast revert. The attached report mentioned my vitamin B12 tests as CLIA 303 pg/mL. Is it fine? I will get the rest of the tests done as suggested by you.
Hi,
Welcome back to icliniq.com. Yes, that is in acceptable range. So, get a repeat complete blood count from another laboratory and let us cross check.
