Hello mr XXXXXXX
I have gone through your reports in details. And after due analysis of reports and the symptom correlation i can say reports are near to normal.
First of all i would like to explain about the reason for increased esr level. No other blood finding in hematology report are elevated. Esr is increased due to any acute infection. It may be a simple cough and coryza or other bacterial infection.
Other part is lipid. Most of the finding in reports are increased to moderate level. Finding are showing that you are at moderate risk. It clearly state that your habit, diet are some where affecting your heart. Level of cholesterol is increasing in your body. You are at moderate risk.
If habits are not improved it may lead to you at high risk for heart trouble.
Suggest you to avoid all fatty oily alcohol non veg spicy and junk food.
Also start jogging and other physical exercise to make you fit.
At this point of time i would not suggest you any medicine because when you change your routine all the associated problem subside by itself.
There is no relation between elevated ESR and lipid level.
Hope this is clear to you.
Please share your query if you have any
thanks
Dr Ratnesh

Hello
Its really good that you are taking all measure to keep you fit.
My concern is even after physical exercise and balance diet lipid is comparatively high. So need to work on this.
I would suggest you to give some extra effort and dietary control to keep lipid and cholesterol level normal.
Avoid any type of fatty diet like fried, oily thing which lead to fat deposition in body.

Hello
Alpha Aplha Tonic (Reckeweg) has been suggest for 1 month.
Normally their is no harm in taking syrup for long time. Syrup is for calcium, iron and vitamin deficiency in the body.
You may continue the Apha alpha syrup for 1 more month.
But i would not suggest you to take this syrup for long time in continue manner. This is not because medicine has any side effect. Medicine is safe to use and has no side effect. But because i want to decrease your dependency over the medicine.
Meanwhile continue the medicine for 1 more month in same doses and then update as required.
Thanks

There are many alternative supplement available but medicine is working fine and their is no point to change the medication right now.
So continue the medicine and we will review the medication after one month.
