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?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
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

View allI've been feeling okay, no fever or injuries, but I'm still a bit concerned. I recently got my blood work done, and my white blood cell count is at 11.8k and platelet count is 11.5 lakh. Not sure if this is something to worry about. What could be causing these numbers to be on the higher side?

I'm a bit concerned about my recent CBC test results. Everything seems normal except for my monocyte count, which is at 80.6 cellscu.mm, whereas I understand the normal range should start from 200. My total WBC is 6200 cellscu.mm, with neutrophils at 4327, lymphocytes at 1636, basophils at 24.8, and eosinophils at 130.2. My platelet count is 303,000, and the peripheral blood smear showed a normocytic normochromic blood picture, so no issues there. Should I be worried about that low monocyte count? Is there something specific I should be looking into?
No immediate concerns based on this report. Your results seem to suggest that everything is within the typical range. Follow-up: If you are experiencing symptoms like fatigue, fever, or unexplained pain, you might want to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation. A low monocyte count alone, especially with normal total white blood cell count and other parameters, is typically not a cause for concern. Monitor your health: Keep track of any changes in your health or any symptoms and consult a doctor if needed.

I'm a 37-year-old guy weighing around 60 kg and I've been on enalapril 5 and met xl 12.5 tablets for my hypertension for the last six months. Recently, during a pre-employment medical checkup, I noticed that the RBC count and size in my blood report were highlighted as concerning by the doctor, but they didn't suggest any treatment. My family doctor is back in Kolkata while I'm currently in Oman. What should I do about this? Should I keep taking my meds as usual, or do I need to consider any other treatment or actions?
It's important to address the abnormal RBC count and size in your blood report. Since your family physician is not readily available, I recommend consulting with a local physician in Oman to further investigate the cause of the abnormal RBC findings. It's important to determine the underlying reason for this abnormality before making any changes to your current medication regimen. However, in the meantime, you can continue taking enalapril 5 and met xl 12.5 as prescribed for your hypertension. These medications help in managing high blood pressure effectively. Make sure to follow the dosage instructions provided by your healthcare provider.
