what are the symptoms of toxoplasmosis in a blood sample? i have erythrocytopenya , back pains, sore throat also low leukocytes. but not much

Question

Having a sore throat as the main first symptoms of imbalanced leukocytes, does that mean the levels are high or low?

Answer 1

Toxoplasmosis: Usually involves the lung, but can cause retina (back of eye) and brain issues. If you have low rbc and WBC counts i would have some concern about underlying illness that put you at risk for the toxo. Cannot connect the back issue.

Answer 2

Ear/Sinus Infection: An ear infection or sinus infection will cause facial pain which can cause pain in the ear or the eye. Taping on the face will elicit pain if the sinus is infected. An ear infection will usually have discharge or pain when pullin on the ear.

Answer 3

Eye pressure: Possibly sinus pressure or infection. A decongestant may help-- try saline nasal spray first-- if this does not help, have an parent call your primary doctor.

Answer 4

See doctor: All of these are different problems with different treatments. In some cases they can be linked together. I would recommend seeing your md to help localize the source of your pain and to discuss treatment options. Treatment options for the above may include medication, injections, and physical therapy.

Answer 5

It depends on what : Is it are the underlying causes of these symptoms. Do you have a back &/or hip problem or even an si joint issue as well. You need an evaluation to see what the diagnosis entails and then direct treatment which can range from: medication, local midalities like heat or icing, injections, pt and activity modifications.

Answer 6

Biopsy when stable: The current studies suggest that there may be a cancer. The source could be the lung or thyroid. This could also be benign, but with the pe it will need further workup. After the pe is stabilized a biopsy is the only way to know.

Answer 7

Biopsy: Biopsy is needed to prove cancer. However, it cannot be done while on anticoagulation which he needs for the pe. You may consider a pet scan to find the easiest place to biopsy once the anticoagulation can be safely held. There are also alternative diagnoses to explain all of these findings, such as autoimmune diseases and infection. That said, you still need to rule out cancer.

Answer 8

Biopsy: The easiest in this case is to biopsy the thyroid nodules. You don't need to go off the anticoagulant to biopsy a thyroid nodule. The needles that we use is so small that bleeding is not a big concern with thyroid biopsies.

Answer 9

Caution advised: In the years I have been practicing I have yet to see anyone with significant lasting improvement after radio frequency ablation which is used to cauterize the small nerves supplying sensation to the spine. Assess the risks versus benefits carefully before deciding.

Answer 10

Consult physician: As you can imagine there are several causes for your symptoms, some severe and some not severe. But a physician needs to see you to question you about them and perform a physical examination. Test may/may not be ordered according to the physician's impression, but most of the time he/she will do. Good luck!

Answer 11

Weight loss: IF you are having persistent pain and weight loss you should be seen.

Answer 12

See doctor: Agree with Dr. Hickerson. Unintended weight loss warrants evaluation by a doctor. Wish you good health! - Have a diet rich in fresh vegetables, fruits, whole grains, milk and milk products, nuts, beans, legumes, lentils and small amounts of lean meats. Avoid saturated fats. Drink enough water daily, so that your urine is mostly colorless. Exercise at least 150 minutes/week and increase the intensity of exercise gradually. Do not use tobacco, alcohol, weed or street drugs in any form. Practice safe sex, if you have sex. Get HPV vaccine
