Is this blood report normal? I'm a 27-year-old male, and I've had a history of severe vitamin B12 and D deficiency that went untreated for a few years, though I completed the treatment. I still struggle with IBS, and I'm worried because my recent blood test showed some values out of range. My lymphocytes are at 43, RBC count is 4.5, hematocrit is 40.9, MCH is 33.7 pg, MCHC is 37.1, RDWCV is 14.8, platelets count is 169, sodium is 149, potassium is 5.1, and chloride is 107. Should I be concerned about these results, or are they something I should keep an eye on?

-The blood report shows some values slightly out of the normal range, particularly with lymphocyte count, MCH, MCHC, and electrolyte levels (sodium, chloride). These may be linked to your past vitamin deficiencies and ongoing IBS. It's advisable to discus

My arm's been hurting since I got blood drawn three times for some tests on January 25th. There's a bit of redness on my skin too. It seemed to be getting better, but I played squash today, and now the pain's back. Can you suggest what I should do?
It seems like your arm might be experiencing irritation or inflammation from the multiple blood draws. I recommend applying a cold compress to reduce swelling and taking over-the-counter pain relief, such as ibuprofen, to alleviate discomfort. If the redness or pain worsens, or if you notice swelling, it would be best to consult your doctor for further evaluation.
