Ask a Doctor and Get an Answer to Your Medical Question ASAP
Hi. I’m Dr. Mark. I’m a board certified physician and happy to assist you. I’m sorry you’re son has these problems. Is he normally in good health? How old is he?
He has a variety of symptoms that can be of many causes. It’s easy to check carbon monoxide levels . He needs a full physical exam and battery of tests. He may have an infection. I would do a full blood work up and see what turns up. I’d recommend a cbc, complete metabolic panel, sed rate. CRP and thyroid hormones. Then depending on the results we move to additional tests. Right now there’s too many possibilities to diagnose him.
I hope he gets to see a gp soon. Should he develop fever or his symptoms worsen then he’ll have to go back to the emergency.
Let me know if you need additional information. My pleasure to assist you. I wish your son a speedy recovery.
You’re welcome. Take care. Stay in touch with me as needed.
