Hi, Thanks for asking. Based on your query, my opinion is as follows.1. High D-dimer levels signifies increased fibrinolysis.2. Malignancy needs to be evaluated, as along with increased d-dimer levels, night sweats also signifies malignancy. Autoimmune disorders like rheumatoid arthritis also require evaluation.3. X-ray of neck and CT scan of brain could be helpful.4. Take more fluids to improve blood pressure. Avoid sudden change in position as postural hypotension additionally can increase risk of fall. Hope it helps. Any further queries, happy to help again.
