Q. Please give me necessary medical advice after seeing my annual blood reports.

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I understand your concern.

The attached reports (attachment removed to protect patient identity) are not clear.

Please attach clear reports along with current or past medications, history of previous illness, and current complaints.

Thank you.

Hello,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

I went through your reports (attachment removed to protect patient identity). At your age, the reports are fair. The interpretations are as follows:

1. You might want to check your fasting and postprandial glucose levels, as your HbA1C is somewhat out of range.

2. MCV (mean corpuscular volume), MCHC (mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration), and other values indicate the volume and size of cells, which are associated with low folate. I suggest you take Multivitamin therapy.

3. Looking at your lipid profile, you have high triglycerides, high VLDL (very low-density lipoprotein), and low HDL (high-density lipoprotein). But at your age, it is common. In my opinion, you might decrease your intake of fatty foods and increase some good fats found in milk, fish, and nuts.

4. GFR (glomerular filtration rate) of the kidneys is low, but at your age, it is good.

I would suggest you get an ECG (electrocardiogram), blood pressure, vitamin B12 level, and an ultrasound of the abdomen done after the consent of your local doctor.

And please get yourself examined at your local clinic.

Take care. Have a nice day.

Thank you.

Same symptoms doesn’t mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
