Hi and welcome to HCM,thank you for your query.
it may indicate 2 most common diseases. first one is some systemic infection so you need to rule out all possible microbiologic causes. Second one is rare but possible: malignant disease and certain blood tests should be done to rule out lymphomas and other hematologic diseases. I am sure you ll find the exact diagnosis soon so that treatment can be started.
Wish you good health. Regards.
