Hello, I had the flu 2 weeks ago and made it through it in a few days but I have not felt right ever since. I have been back to the doctor and had blood work and urine taken. I went because the color of my skin had become yellow and I had a sever cough. The Urine showed positive Bilirubin, trace ketones and the blood test came back all good for my liver, pancreas and kidney but showed mild anemia. I have also had a chest x-ray and that is clear yet my doctor says I have pneumonia. I still have fatigue and pain in my chest, mid and lower back I have lost 6 pounds in the last week and my appetite is still low. No fever and I am drinking plenty of water to stay hydrated. In July I was told I had gallstones which the first doctor who ordered the blood and urine thinks is the problem but my primary has dismissed that and says its pneumonia. Still not feeling good and not sure who to believe at this point. Please let me know what questions you have and I appreciate your opinion.
Thanks for your question on Health Care Magic. I can understand your concern. You are mostly having gall stones. Your all blood and urine reports are suggestive of gall stone and related jaundice. By definition, pneumonia is considered only when there is consolidation on chest x ray. Your chest x ray is normal. So pneumonia is not possible. So you are having gall stone, not pneumonia. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
