Hi, may I answer your health queries right now ? Please type your query here...
I am a healthy 30 year old woman with chronic pelvic/abdominal pain for 4 months and recent blood work showed my WBC is 12,500 and my CRP level is 42. My next step is a ct scan of my abdomen and pelvis. What are they possibly looking for?
Hi. Thanks for your query. They are possibly looking for the following: -PID- Pelvic Inflammatory Disease. -Problems related to the uterus, tubes and ovaries like Salpingitis, TO mass. -Cystitis and UTI. -Enteritis, pelvis peritonitis by say tuberculosis -Appendicitis in pelvis position. -Or any inflammatory disease that has raised your WBC and CRP.
Hope CT scan helps you and your Doctors to find the cause. and you get a proper treatment.
