I'm curious about blood group compatibility for marriage. Both my partner and I have A positive blood types. Could this lead to any issues or concerns we should be aware of?

In general, there are no significant concerns or complications for a marriage between two individuals with A+ positive blood groups, as they share the same ABO blood type and Rh positivity, minimizing the risk of blood transfusion reactions or hemolytic disease of the newborn (HDN) in their offspring

I've had a minor skin surgery recently, and my doctor recommended I get a CBP. I noticed in my report that my RBC and RDW levels are higher than normal, while my MCH, MCV, and MCHC are lower. Should I be worried about this? I'm generally healthy and don't have any symptoms that seem concerning to me. Can you help me understand what this might mean?

Your RBC and RDW being high, along with low MCH, MCV, and MCHC, might suggest some mild anemia or other factors affecting red blood cells. Since you're not experiencing symptoms, its likely not a serious concern, but it's a good idea to follow up with your doctor to understand the context of these results.

I'm on the 9th day of my Dengue treatment, and my platelet count is at 36k. Everything else in my body and reports seems okay. I've been eating and drinking as much as I can to try and boost the count, but for the past two days, it's been stuck between 24k and 36k. I'm not sure what else I should do. Any advice?
