I was diagnosed with COVID about 16 days ago and spent 3 days in the hospital. They sent me home once my CRP level was below 2. Now, 10 days later, my CRP is at 4.4. I'm taking Medrol 16 mg and Ecosprin 150 mg, but its gone up. Should I be concerned about this increase?

Is there anything I should be worried about with my lymphocytes count being a little high at 43? I recently had a blood test done and it showed that my HIV duo test was non-reactive, which I did on March 1st. Right now, I'm taking medication for a fungal infection. I've been having some itching in certain areas, but there are no rashes, although it sometimes turns red after I scratch. Should I be concerned about these changes or is it just the medication working?

I'm a bit worried about my body temperature. It usually stays around 98 to 98.7 in the morning but goes up to 99 by late afternoon, then drops back to 98.7 around 9 pm and stays there. It's been like this since April 10. For a couple of days in between, my temperature didn't go above 98.7. I haven't taken any meds for fever. Could this be something like typhoid or malaria? I haven't been able to get a blood test because of the whole corona situation. What do you think might be going on?

sometimes dueto hormonal changes also there's is change in temperature. Drink plenty of water and avoid stress as much as you can
