Question 1

i got my lab results back. my calcium,triglyceride,wbc and c- reactive protein was high. and i tested positivefor mycoplasma. what couldcause this?

Accepted Answer

Lab data: These values are meaningless without clinical correlation. In addition, without knowing what the actual values for each of these elements were it is impossible to comment on them. For instance, "positive for Mycoplasma" has no value unless we know what was positive (particular test and values)

Accepted Answer

Cholesterol. : With these numbers, your LDL cholesterol is too high and your HDL cholesterol is too low; both of these issues can put you at risk for heart and vascular disease. Regular cardiovascular exercise along with a heart healthy meal plan should help both of these issues. Triglycerides are fine.

Question 9

newborn child high fever blood test c-reactive protein high?

Accepted Answer

Complex: We start treatment on our infants who have fever or the mother has an infection/fever. There are supporting tests (complete blood count and c-reactive protein) that may support but not prove infection.  The gold standard is the blood culture that takes 48 hrs to come back (+ or -). Regardless of all that the physician must make a clinical decision about how long to treat the infantbased on these &.
