Question: what are the treatment option for an 80 year old lady and what kind of desease is this?doctor has given some 5 -6 tablets..
Brief answer....urinary tract infection
Detailed answer...
Hello,
Thanks for the query.
I have read your query and understand your concern.
I have seen all the reports sent by you.
X rays show ageing changes in spine and some cardiac enlargement.
It is the urine report which shows that the lady is suffering from acute urinary Tract infection and it also shows the antibiotics which would suit her best for this infection.
There is nothing to worry as she would settle soon.
I hope it helps,however you are most welcome to revert to me for any further query.
Best of luck
Thanks
