Suggest Treatment For Cold And Flu While On Immunosuppressive Therapy
The ER visit is mandatory
Detailed Answer:
Hi and welcome.
In every patient who is recieving imunnospuressive therapy, each infection or suspicion of infection should be treated adequately. It is obvious that she receives immunosupressive therapy is she had organ transplantations in history...
Fever is sign of infection and it may be caused by simel flu or urinary infection but also, kidney infection with urosepsis or intrabaddominal abscess may be present as well. So it would be good to do at least basic lab findings to see the degree of inflammatory process. In transplanted people, antibiotic therapy may be requied more often than in other people. Of course this may be just temporary inflammation and probably wont be life threathening but you should not take the risk... WIsh you good health. Regards
You are welcone

You are welcome. You should just be cautious and if her condition deteriorates or fever progresses,you should see doctor. her diabetes may just complicate possible urinary or any other infection so if blood sugar is higher than 10mmol then you should also see doctor.
