Hello doctor, I am a male of 24 years of age, I recently I did my cbp, esr, crp, fpg and b12 (because in 2019 I was deficient) which all came back normal except for cbp it showed 2080 neutrophil with 42% of them in total wbc, and 46% of lymphocytes with 2200+ absolute lymphocytic count, my cousin sister is a govt doctor she asked me to repeat the cbp so I did after 2 days and the test came back with further decrease in neutrophil with 1800+ absolute neutrophil and 41% of them in wbc and lymphocytes were 46% but they too decreased in absolute lymphocyte count from 2200+ to 2080, I recently had fever 2 times in april 2021, I had mvp+hyperthyroidism back in 2015 but after few months of treatment they subsided, last time I visited the cardiologist in 2019 he said everything is fine, but in that same year I was depressed and had anxiety maybe due to career related things and exams for which I took medications for a month and discounted then after, in the last week of april I went for rtpcr and after some hours I had blood in my sputum for which I went to the gp he gave some medications and said nothing to worry, he also gave medications for my gerd and anxiety (maybe again due exams because I had exams few days ago), he gave stalopam mini plus for anxiety for 20 days but I couldn't see him because of lockdown after 20 days and had to stop it abruptly and developed withdrawal symptoms like dizziness all the time, however it's better now, my diet and sleep patterns were very bad for past 2-3 years, from late april I have improved my sleeping patterns, I cannot eat spicy because of acid reflux, righ now I have constipation as well along with acid reflux, should I be worried about my wbc counts? What should I do? Please let me know! my lymphocytes were 45% in 2019 as well that's why I am worried why they're elevated and neutrophil are relatively less.

Stress patients worry too much. Stress in today’s day & age where stress is high, feelings of frustration can emerge. It is our perception that can change our current negative situation into a healthy & positive one. Another way of perceiving these feelings of frustration can be by looking at them as an opportunity to push ourselves to go that little extra mile until we achieve our objective. However, there are times when we all can go around in circles; and being in this space can be quite upse...more

Hi aakash,
oxetol (oxcarbazepine) is one of the medication used for bipolar disorder, but we usually avoid during pregnancy. It can be associated with teratogenic effects. It would be better if you take your psychiatrist opinion before you plan to go ahead with pregnancy planning. The primary psychiatrist whom you are seeing will be in a better position to gauze your wife condition and guide you. Do not take any decision on your own, because stopping medication may cause relapse of the disea...more

Dear user problems are a part of our life but we have to know how to deal with them, if we manage them properly we will grow and enjoy our life but if we are not able to face them and surrender to them then problems will grow. For sometime it is okay to take medicines and then you have to learn to deal your problems on your own, medicines are a temporary solution to your problem. Do some breathing exercises, walk, meet your friends, change your life style, I ll help you to change yourself in a b...more

I'm suffering from. Bipolar disorder, I take oxetol xr 150 mg single dose on alternate days. My situation has improved from past 10 years. I was diagnosed at the age of 12 with acute transient psychosis later I came to know that it's bipolar disorder. I usually had relapse once in 2 year or 1 year. Currently im taking maintenance dose i.e oxetol xr 150 mg. As a kid I have been always bright in my studies and sports. Medicines that have worked for me are encorate ,dicorate ,aripiprazole whenever I had relapse these medicines dosage have been increased and slowly within 2-3 months I have become normal. I personally feel that I should always take the maintenance dose. I'm working more than any average person, currently working as senior data scientist in mnc. I have done good in sports as well ,played state level tournaments. My current concern is my weight ,i want to maintain a healthy weight my height is 5'7 and my weight is 84. I want to maintain a healthy weight. I'm thankful to the suggestion given by my family psychiatry because of his suggestions and remedies only I have achieved everything in my life. Any suggestions and remedies to maintain a healthy weight will be appreciated. My current dosage is single oxetol xr 150 on alternate days. Is it possible to maintain a healthy weight with this dosage or not? Any ways to at least loose 10 kg weight with this medicine. Please help on this. Thanks in advance.

For reduce weight you have to follow food diet and exercise. Walking is the best exercise. Avoid oily food and more fruits and vegetables soup.

In bipolar disorder there are episodes of mania and depression/ or normal mood. In between the episodes a person is normal. Regarding your gf both are adults and only consensual feelings can move the relationship forward and not one sided feelings for the other. Get your bipolar disorder treated by a psychiatrist and try to achieve optimal functioning in life. Good luck.
