I'm really worried about my dad. It's been about 40 days since he tested positive for COVID-19, and now his CRP is at 10. Does that seem high to you? He's had a fever between 99 and 101 for the last 5 days. Could this be related to his CRP levels? I've got his CBP, CRP, and D-dimer reports here. Could you help me understand what's going on?

I've been dealing with this dry cough and random discomfort all over, like in my chest, pelvis, and abdomen. These discomforts just appear and disappear, and they don't usually last long, except for my chest, which lingered on two occasions. Also, I've been feeling this slight ache in my shoulder and lower back for about a month now. Just wondering what's going on with my body? Should I be worried, or is there something I should do to make it stop?

I got a penicillin shot in my butt this morning, and I'm wondering if smoking marijuana will affect it. Can you help me understand if theres any risk or interaction I should be concerned about?
Smoking marijuana shouldn't directly interfere with the effectiveness of penicillin, but it can affect your immune system and overall health, potentially slowing recovery. It's always best to avoid substances that might impair your body's healing process, especially when you're on antibiotics.
