Lungs infection
My mother developed pneumonia with HRCt score of 11/25 on her 9th day. Now on 20th day, her x ray report mentioned "B/L hila appears prominent". Her crp declined pattern is 11.5mg/l on 9th day, 3.1mg/l on 12th day, 2.9 mg/l on 20th day. Her wbc is 13.5 thou/ul. And platelets count is 150 thou/ul. Her doctor started rrb 10mg for 10 days and started tapering off her steroid methylpredisonol 8mg to 4mg. My question is why her wbc is increasing and platelets decreasing. Is there any other infection ? Also, her lungs problem (hila) is curable permantely or not? Any severity in her reports?
