Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Your blood culture report shows that he has no bacterial infection in blood at the moment the sample was taken. A viral infection is not excluded. I suggest you have a test for mononucleosis and also a hematologist consult.

All the best.
