I've been feeling something really weird on the left side, just below my ribs for the past three months. It's like a mix of pain, ticklish sensations, and bubbling. At one point, I thought maybe I'd torn a muscle, so I rushed to emergency. They did an ECG, checked my blood pressure, and even took an X-ray, but everything came back normal. I'm on some meds that the doctor gave me from the GD Diabetes Centre like Voveran SR, Pan D, and Trinerve 75. But still, when I touch the area, it hurts a bit, and when I don't, it feels ticklish and painful at the same time. Any idea what's going on or if I should be concerned?

I discovered a blood-red worm in my stool and I'm feeling quite worried about it. I'm currently anemic and taking iron syrup as prescribed, but I'm not on any other medication. Could the worm be related to my anemia or the iron syrup? What steps should I take to address this?
Based on your blood report, here are some observations: _Low White Blood Cell (WBC) Count_ 1. _Leucopenia_: Your total WBC count is low (3.83), which can indicate a weakened immune system. 2. _Neutropenia_: Your neutrophil percentage (34.9%) and absolute count (1.34) are low, which can increase the risk of infections. _Other Observations_ 1. _Lymphocytosis_: Your lymphocyte percentage (56.7%) is elevated, which can indicate a viral or bacterial infection. 2. _Anemia_: Your RBC count (5.57) is high, but your MCV, MCH, and MCHC values indicate microcytic anemia. _Typhoid Possibility_ 1. _Fever and throat symptoms_: Your recent fever and persistent throat mucus could be indicative of a bacterial infection like typhoid. 2. _Blood report_: While your blood report doesn't conclusively diagnose typhoid, the low WBC count, neutropenia, and lymphocytosis could be consistent with a typhoid infection.
