I've been dealing with a vitamin B12 deficiency for a couple of months and started getting B12 injections weekly for six weeks. I just got my levels checked again, and now they're over 2000. Is this normal, or should I be worried? Also, I have some other blood work results like hemoglobin at 15, platelets at 346, and WBC at 7800. I'm curious if these are all interconnected somehow. What's going on with my blood tests?

I've been diagnosed with a B12 deficiency a few times now, and I'm taking supplements for it. Is there any chance that homeopathy could help treat this deficiency too?

I'm worried about my 85-year-old grandmother who has AB blood type. She's been really sick and needs blood. Is it okay for someone with B type blood to donate to her, or does it have to match her exact blood type?

in general, it is ideal to transfuse the same blood type to avoid any adverse reactions. However, in emergency situations, when the same blood type is not available, AB+ blood type individuals can receive blood from B+ blood type donors. This is because AB+ individuals are universal recipients and can receive blood from any blood type. It is important to consult with the healthcare provider for the appropriate blood transfusion and dosage.

I'm really concerned about my mom. She had Covid, but thankfully she recovered and tested negative about two weeks ago. However, we've noticed her D Dimer level is now 675mg. Is it normal for blood to become thicker after testing negative for Covid? Also, her CRP level is up to 10. Is there a chance of reinfection, or is this something else I should be worried about?

continue the covid tablets which your consultant given!! no need to recheck
