I have severe fever and body pain but I have taste and smell sensation. Please help.

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Apart from fever and body pain, do you have cough and breathlessness? Please revert immediately.

You could at least get the following tests immediately and revert.

1) RT-PCR (reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction) or Antigen test for SARS-CoV-2 (Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus) and Swine flu.

2) Blood tests:

Complete blood count (CBC), ESR (erythrocyte sedimentation rate), HbA1c (glycated hemoglobin), and RBS (random blood sugar).

Tests indicative of SARS-CoV-2 infection like C-reactive protein (CRP), IL-6 (Interleukin-6), D-dimer, Ferritin, Lactate Dehydrogenase (LDH),

Other disease blood tests like malarial, typhoid, paratyphoid, brucellosis, proteus, typhus antigen tests.

After giving blood samples for testing, I suggest the following:

• Tablet Ivermectin 12 mg one tablet once daily for five days.
• Capsule Cholecalciferol 60000 IU one capsule once a week for six weeks.
• Tablet Mefenamic acid 250 mg one tablet if fever is greater than 99.5⁰F, and does not reduce with tablet Paracetamol.

Revert after Swab, blood tests, at the earliest.
