Thank you for contacting HCM with your healthcare concerns. Your nephew has been hospitalized with weight loss and fever with itching eyes. I would think the most likely cause of this constellation of symptoms could be infection like TB. But the number of possible infections is huge. His doctors should be able to find a cause and properly treat him
