My 8 year old daughter has had high fevers - 103 range for weeks a t a time, 3 episodes in past 5 weeks. she has lost 5 pounds of her 70 pound frame, and just had labs yesterday that reveal LDH 544, ALT 180, AST 117. Other symptoms include not having her normal energy and back pain with occasional abdominal pain
Hello, From the reports, it seems that she is suffering from some sub-acute infection which is affecting the liver. There are also features of hemolysis (breaking of red blood cells) evident from the raised LDH report. However, the laboratory report s are incomplete. She needs a thorough clinical examination as well as laboratory evaluations like complete hologram with reticulocyte count and peripheral smear, Viral hepatitis markers, malaria card test, blood culture, Tidal test for typhoid, ABV viral serological test etcetera. So I will suggest you visit some pediatrician for a proper evaluation of her condition. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
