I recently had an annual blood test that revealed low white blood cell (WBC) count of 3.3. I am a 31-year-old female, otherwise healthy with no medications. My previous WBC counts were 5.3 (2019), 5.0 (2018), 3.9 (2016), 4.5 (2015), and 4.8 (2012). A week after the blood test, a urine test revealed a UTI which was treated with antibiotics. Should I be concerned about my low WBC count, and what should I do next?

Your low WBC count of 3.3 is slightly below the reference range, but your absolute neutrophil count ...

I'm experiencing erratic temperature regulation, feeling hot and cold without a fever, and I'm 37 years old. I have a history of medical conditions including spina bifida, hydrocephalus, spinal cord injury, endometriosis, IBS, and skin issues. I'm currently on medications including risperidone, zoloft, remeron, ditropan, senna, atarax, mira lax, and milk of magnesia PRN. Could this be related to my medications, and is there anything I can do to regulate my temperature in the meantime?

I believe I have a parasite. How long has this been a concern for you? How old are you? Are you currently using any medications? Anything else in your medical history you think the Doctor should know?

For about 6 weeks, I have been experiencing persistent pain in my right ear, neck, and throat, trouble swallowing, a hoarse voice, tightness in my chest, shortness of breath, swollen and painful lymph nodes, weight loss, and other symptoms such as dizziness, nausea, and occasional vomiting. My blood tests and imaging results are mostly normal, except for some elevated EBV antibodies and enlarged lymph nodes. I have been treated for reflux, TMJ, and a UTI, but I am still not seeing any improvement. What could be causing these symptoms and what further steps should I take?

Good morning, I'm looking for someone who can help me with a prescription for ED medication in St. Thomas, USVI. Have you used this medication or anything similar before? Are you currently using any other medications? How old are you? Is there anything else in your medical history that the Doctor should know?
