Also wanted to know about 0 Basophils and what does that indicate on normal basis. I guess you are saying that is also part of the viral issues. I am also a nurse so just wanted some question answered. Also what is difference in elevation of ALT which was 50 and within normal range and AST which is 38 with normal of 10-29.. If I need info from another specialist that just let me know. How do I send lab work to be reviewed. I have some questions for either an endocrinologist and cardiologist.. I probably need to scan to send to you all. Thank you very much for your help. I did a paper in school and learned Greek word for Doctor Docear means teacher... Thanks for you time to teach.
