Brief Answer:
I would explain as follows:

Detailed Answer:
Hello again!

I carefully reviewed your blood lab tests and would explain that:

- Your blood count shows an elevated number of white blood cells, with normal ratios of neutrophiles and lymphocytes. These findings could be related to inflammation, but they do not show any viral or bacterial infection.

- Your sodium levels are low. I recommend repeating the electrolyte levels.
Low sodium levels, could be related to different symptoms like nausea, muscular cramps, fatigue. That is why they have given infusions of sodium to correct these low levels.

The other lab tests are normal.

I recommend you checking additional markers of inflammation such as PCR, ESR, etc.

These findings are not very specific for myocardial ischemia and they do not exclude this disorder.

I would recommend performing the already mentioned tests in our previous discussions to investigate for possible myocardial ischemia.

Hope to have been helpful!

Kind regards,

Dr. Iliri
