Patient's question:
On January 1, my daughter had a fever of 39.8°C and was taken to the hospital for a complete blood count. The results showed white blood cells at 13.4 (reference range: 3.6-9.7), neutrophil percentage at 74.4 (reference range: 43.2-71.5), neutrophils at 9.97 (reference range: 1.86-7.17), hematocrit at 37.42 (reference range: 38-50), and basophils at 0.12 (reference range: 0.01-0.08). All other tests were normal. She was diagnosed with tonsillitis and received intravenous drips (Amoxicillin/Sulbactam Injection and Ganoderma Lucidum Injection). By the third day, her fever remained above 39°C, and an X-ray revealed bacterial pneumonia, leading to hospitalization for treatment.Doctor's answer:
Hello, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and alpha-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase (AHBDH) are early markers of myocardial injury. Within 6 hours after myocardial injury, the levels of LDH and AHBDH in the blood will rise.In your case, the symptoms are likely caused by myocardial damage, and viral myocarditis cannot be ruled out. Seek treatment immediately if the condition is severe.
