I'm really concerned because I've been dealing with low platelet levels for about a year now, and I've noticed that every morning I wake up with a cough that brings up dark blood. On top of that, I've been having chronic cough and cold issues. What steps should I take to address these problems?

I'm worried about my lymphocyte count, it's at 56 and my hemoglobin is 14.3. A few months ago, my lymphocyte count was around 50. Should I be concerned about the increase? Any advice would be really helpful.
An increase in lymphocytes can be due to various reasons such as infections, stress, inflammation, or even certain medications. Since your hemoglobin (Hb) level is normal at 14.3, it is less likely to be a cause for concern. To address your worries about the high lymphocyte count, I recommend focusing on maintaining a healthy lifestyle, managing stress, and staying hydrated. If you have any symptoms such as persistent fever, unexplained weight loss, or enlarged lymph nodes, it would be advisable to consult with a healthcare professional for further evaluation. In the meantime, you can consider taking over-the-counter medications like Vitamin C supplements to support your immune system. Additionally, getting regular exercise and ensuring an adequate intake of fruits and vegetables can also help support your overall health.

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?
