 | Would you know what "Arthral Grade A" means?....
I saw this written beside my son's x-ray results. |
 |
| I am sorry but I cannot help you. It would be helpful if you could tell me more about why the x-ray was done and the full report of the x-ray.

 | I'm having a problem with my platelet count. It is only 133.000 per cmm. Before this, it was140.000 per cmm. My coagulation factors are normal.
What's should I do ?
|
 |
| The normal platelet count is from 150 - 400,000 per cmm. Your platelets are only marginally lower than the normal range. I would not worry about the small difference in the two platelet counts.
However, if you are still worried, then you should consult a Consultant Haemagologist.

 | After six months on strict diet, my lipid test shows:
Total cholesterol 6.8, HDL 1.32, LDL 4.9, Triglycerides 1.2 and Total/HDL ratio 5.2. Presently, I am taking Kerlone 10mg daily for my high blood pressure which is under control. Readings 125/80. I am 45 years old.
Please advise whether I should go on medication or try for another six months on strict diet. |

| Your Low Density Lipoprotein Level (LDL) is high in spite of being on a strict diet for six months. I would suggest that you should see your doctor with a view to starting on medication.
