Question 1

I'm worried because my fever hasn't gone away in five days, and my platelet count has dropped to 94,000. I've been on a drip for these five days, but there's no change in the fever. What could be going on, and what should I do next?

Accepted Answer

It may take some time but consult nearest physician

Question 2

I'm a bit worried about my recent health situation. Over the last three days, I've noticed that I feel like my head is spinning whenever I'm trying to go to sleep. I checked my blood pressure at home using our Omron digital auto BP machine, and it seems to be consistently within the same range. On top of that, I'm already on medication for thyroid, diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis, and Telday 40. Do you think these symptoms are related to my current medications or should I be concerned about something else?

Accepted Answer

Given your wife's symptoms of dizziness and head spinning, especially when sleeping, and considering her pre-existing conditions of thyroid, diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis, and hypertension (with BP consistently in the same range), it's essential to consult her primary care physician or a specialist to adjust her medications, particularly Telday 40, and investigate potential causes such as orthostatic hypotension, hypoglycemia, or medication interactions.

Question 3

I'm really concerned because my wife woke up this morning with a purple tongue, but she doesn't have any other symptoms. Should we be worried or is this something that might go away on its own? What could be causing this?
