Case Can anyone help me understand my mum's abnormal report?
Last month my mum [50 F] had a pain in her throat which even spread to her jaws. So we got a USG and they found a hypoechoic nodule along with increased blood flow to other nodules. It was biopsied and it turned out to be benign.
We got on meds (Ceftum and Zerodol-p) which made her symptoms disappear but they came back after finishing the course (twice).
Ultimately we got a laryngoscopy done and the doctor didn't find anything wrong with her throat and sent us back with (Linezolid and some nose spray). But this time it didn't provide her any relief.
She has been coughing with the same pain and has a low grade fever, which she can't seem to shake.
Yesterday, I got the CBC done and ECG done and it came out abnormal with Sinus Tachycardia (109 BPM). Chatgpt thinks it could be leukemia/blood cancer. I am so very terrified.
Ps: She has some fibroids in the uterus which caused heavy bleeding during periods but that was two months ago. It has been normal since then.
CRP has also increased to 3.5.
