Diagnosed with typhoid
Sir/Mam! My son is 7 months old and is diagnosed with salmonella typhio "o" - 1:80 and salmonella typhio "h" - 1:160. He is been advised with cefix-o by the paediatrian 4days ago . In doubt I checked for CBP of my baby boy and here I am attaching the report. It indicates high blood platelets and low MPV. What does it indicate? Also low lymphocytes and monocytes. Please let me know. I am a poor single mother . Please let me know the problem. Is there any serious condition.🙏

The Widal test report is positive for Typhoid and you are taking treatment.
Regarding the CBP report it suggests Iron Deficiency anaemia which is common in this age group. The platelet count is high but it is not alarming.
Lymphocytes are high but the overall white cells count is not very high.
In short you should start Iron supplements for your child after consulting with the Paediatrician. Everything else will correct itself.

Mam, continue with the medication. Lymphocytes are on higher side not lower side indicates viral issue. There is some other issues including bacterial too. Till age 8 there is mildly increase in Lymphocytes but as per short and temporary issues to salmonella should be treated well . If symptoms is getting relived with these medication need bot to worry. Continue it .
