Is TLC Count Of 22,000 A Cause For Concern When Diagnosed With Pneumonia?

Brief Answer:
Pneumonia, needs management
Detailed Answer:
Thank you for asking
i read your question and i understand your concern. Raised TLC of 22 thousand with pain in epigastrium and x rays showing abscess makes it pneumonia and CT scan might just be confirming the pneumonia. Your husband needs prompt antibiotics with broad spectrum probably in combination and good chest physiotherapy and proper nutritive support and hopefully he will recover in a couple of weeks.
I hope it helps. take good care of your husband and yourself and dont forget to close the discussion please.
