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?

View allI'm concerned about my mom, who's been on Orofer XT for the past year. She's 68, and her hemoglobin is at 9.3, but everything else in her CBC is fine, and her sugar levels are controlled. Should she keep taking the Orofer XT, or is it time to stop?
It is better to stop the medication , Advised complete blood count and physician review.

I'm a bit worried about my blood test results. It shows my WBC at 4600, RBC at 4.25, and something about platelets. What does that mean? Should I be concerned about these numbers?

I've recently had a blood test, and I'm a bit worried because my ESR is pretty high at 56mm, and my MCH and MCHC levels are low. What could this mean? Should I be concerned about anything in particular? I'd really appreciate any advice you could give me.
if you have low hemoglobin then you might be anemic. take foods with rich iron
