Post covid
My husband covid at May 4. That time he is ok. But after May 25 he is getting cough, tiredness, mild fever at evening and sweating. So June 8 we take RTPCR is negative and CRP 41. After that he has only tiredness and cough (sometimes). June 18 We again take CRP is 41.8. he give some antibiotics after that he feel very tiredness, so may 21 we check with lungs specialist he told to take CRP, d- dimer, CBC, and CT scan. The result is CRP 96, D-dimer 3.1 and CT scan lungs looks clear, CBC also ok. He gives 1 week tablets for D-dimer and CRP..after 1 week he advised to take again CRP and D-dimer. This test is ok or we need to take any other test..why D-dimer is high??
