Hi,I am Dr. Robert Galamaga (Hematologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
My mother aged 58-year-old is suffering from fever for the last 12 days. First the fever was high-grade with intense shivering and later after a course of antibiotic the fever is still continuing but is low grade. The blood test showed negative malaria as well as typhoid symptoms but some alarming results were as this Hb-8.8, Lymphocytes-9 ten days back and now 15, ESR-40 then and now 50, platelet count now 198 and then it was 165. But the Hb has decreased to 7.1. Kindly analyze.
