What is the likely cause of my fever based on my reports?

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I have gone through your reports (attachment removed to protect patient identity).

I went through your post and investigations. The most common cause of fever in decreasing order at 60 years of age is urinary tract infection, viral fever, pneumonia, and gastroenteritis.

You have not mentioned any symptoms except fever. Your investigations do not show any significant abnormality except a mild elevation of the WBC (white blood cell) count.

I would suggest an X-ray of the chest, urine examination, and ultrasonogram of the abdomen.

You need to start antibiotics. I suggest taking tablet Levofloxacin 500 mg once daily. It will take care of urine or chest infection if any of them is the cause. Consult your specialist doctor, discuss with him or her and start taking the medicines with their consent.

However, the above investigations need to be done.

Regards.

Hello,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

I have seen the reports (attachment removed to protect patient identity).

It is a good thing that the fever has settled. The tests you have uploaded are normal except for CRP (C-reactive protein), which is expected as you had inflammation. There is nothing to worry about.

Regards.

Thank you.
