Dear Friend.
Welcome to HCM. I am Dr Anshul Varshney.
I have read your query in detail. I understand your concern.
This can occur due to following reasons:
1. Pulmonary Tuberculosis
2. Severe allergic / eosinophillic pnuemonitis
I think you should get following investigations:
1. Repeat Hemogram and ESR
2. Sputum for AFB.
3. Absolute Eosinophil Count
This is my best advice for you with the available details, if you have any further query, please ask us.
Stay Healthy
