Huge difference in price of blood tests between OPD and IPD My friend recently got admitted into a reputed hospital with a breathing issue and cough. The hospital conducted a plethora of blood tests like LFT, CBC, Tropilin I and few more. What was shocking was the IPD blood test rates were more than 3 times higher than the IPD rates. For example: LFT for OPD was close to 700 INR whereas LFT for IPD costed 3000 INR. Is it fair and are these prices negotiable?

Hello, I got fever last wednesday after I started shivering suddenly. For 2 days, I only had shivering and fever. Then on 3rd day, I started having a sore throat as well. Since then I have a sore throat, coughing and feel like blocked nose, ear and some episodes of ear pain. From 2 days, I have red eyes too and at night it feels like there is a white liquid discharge from eyes. I have been taking Sumo (since fever started), azythromycin and cetrizine (since sore throat started) but symptoms are still there. Fever is not there after 4th day. Should I continue the same meds or change something? Are all these symptoms of viral infection only? I have been simultaneously doing all home remedies- hot water gargle, steam inhalation, etc.
