Risk for mucormycosis

2021-06-01 04:44:27
Mother's HBA1C is 7.6 (her sugars were more earlier and she recovered from covid 45 days ago at home. She consumed steroids 6 days, 12mg deflazacort). Attached her blood reports, her wbc are 3700. Really worried about risk of mucormycosis. Although 45 days passed her recovery, is there a risk to catch it now?

Mucormycosis risk is multifactorial and diabetes is one risk factor. Going by the reports sugars is well controlled. As she has recovered 45 days back and used mild steroids she dose not have risk of developing fungal infection.
