Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Suggest Treatment For 15% Functioning Of The Heart And Blood In Lungs
My grandson(30) is in the hospital. His heart is only working at 15% and he has blood in both lungs. His white blood count is 27 and he is spitting up blood. The heart doctor and the lung doctor are at odds as to what to do. Do you have any suggestions?
He is suffering a severe heart failure. The lungs are also suffering due to the heart problems. He should be better in ICU and the heart medicines mainly the diuretics help more. However, his treating doctor know better what to do further.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Jolanda Nikolla, Pulmonologist
