Detailed Answer:
Hello!
Welcome and thank you for asking on HCM!
I passed carefully through your question and would explain that your symptoms could be related to an infection or inflammation.
The elevated blood pressure could be a normal reaction to the pain or fever.
Have you measured your body temperature?
I agree with your decision on starting an antibiotic, but I would recommend first consulting with your attending physician for a careful physical exam and some tests:
- a chest X ray study
- complete blood count
- PCR, ESR for inflammation
- an abdominal ultrasound
- a urine analysis
- a blood bacterial culture
- a urine bacterial culture.
Further tests be needed based on the above test results, in order to determine the type of infection and the proper treatment options.
Kind regards,
Dr. Iliri
