Hello!

Thank you for asking on HCM!

Her symptoms could be related to different disorders:

- migraine
- high blood pressure
- inflammation

The nose bleeding and the loss in her weigh is concerning for possible intracranial lesion or a tumor.

I recommend to closely monitor her blood pressure and refer to her attending physician. High blood pressure can lead to headaches and nose bleeding.

Besides a careful physical exam, some tests are needed:

- chest X ray study
- abdominal ultrasound
- lab blood tests (complete blood count, thyroid hormone levels, PCR, sedimentation rate, coagulation tests)
- a brain CT scan to exclude possible intracranial lesion.

Hope to have been helpful!
Best wishes,
Dr. Aida
