High CRP and low platelets suggest infection/inflammation, possibly viral. Uncontrolled sugar worsens recovery. Monitor sugars closely and consult physician for fever source.
Dr. Bhanu Suggests...
Take a COMPLETE BLOOD COUNT (CBC) Test or Take a DENGUE PROFILE (IGG & IGM ANTIBODY & NS1 ANTIGEN) Test
