Hi,I am Dr. Santosh Kondekar (Pediatrician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
my 7 yr old daughter has a history of leukemia....however, she has been getting nose bleeds, fever and headaches for 3 days now. she was tested for the flu and she has influenza A....should i be worried about her cancer coming back or is this just part of the flu?
Hi dear,I had gone through your question and understand your concern. I strongly recommend you to go immediately to hematologist and check her blood test urgently, because bleeding can be sign of pancytopenia or thrombocytopenia.At the first we should exclude dangerous statements for life,then we will treat flu with sneezing and cough.In even in this situation you should be guided by hematologist only .Don't take risk . Hope I answered to your question. Wishing your child good health
