My father was diagnosed with Dengue last week. He was hospitalised last week due to extreme dehydration. Since then, he has recovered well and is without fever for the past 3 days. His platelets counts is 160K.
However, for the past 3 days, his BP is in the range of 90-150 to 110-190. Earlier his BP was always normal.
