Patient's question:
White blood cells over 50,000, eosinophils over 30,000, there are lumps on the back, nodes in the abdomen, and small bumps on the legs. The pain decreases during the day, but sometimes it gets worse at night, making it hard to sleep. Other hospitals said that tapeworm infection can also affect the lungs, but it doesn't cause pain. The doctor said it's lung adenocarcinoma. Our family members believe it's malignant lymphoma that caused the high white blood cell and eosinophil counts, because the doctor said it's due to tapeworm infection. They won't admit me to the hospital, and if we delay any further, it will be a problem.Doctor's answer:
For this situation, it is necessary to have an MRI examination, and during this period, timely surgery is required, along with treatment using Imatinib and Prednisolone. Additionally, in daily life, patients should maintain a balanced nutritional intake, engage in aerobic exercises to stay fit, and keep a positive mood to enhance their physical condition and accelerate recovery. The above is advice on this matter, and I hope it helps you. Wishing you a speedy recovery!
