Hi,
By serum keratin you mean serum creatinine. Right? And WBC of 16000 is definitely high and with all those symptoms say he would also have high grade fever. He needs to visit an internal medicine specialist and get tested for any renal disease. High creatinine means renal disease and since he already has diabetes and heart problems, this should not be ignored. Let us know your city so that we can get you in touch with the best internal medicine/ urologist at the earliest.
Yes, stress can cause heart palpitations because when you are stressed, your body releases a hormone called adrenaline which makes your heart beat faster. But, it could be something else too like too much caffeine or alcohol, certain medications, asthma inhalers, dehydration and other health issues.....
Yes, blood donation is good for health. Some studies have shown a decrease in Cancer risk, as well as decrease in the damage to the liver and pancreas in the long run. One should definately donate blood, ofcourse after the entire pre-requisites are cleared.
