What Causes Fever Along With Dizziness In A Child?

Hi I have a ten year old daughter, who has had unexplained fevers for the past two years, she has recently been having some dizzy spell. We had some blood work done and her Immature absolute granules and immature granules were at 0.6. Her platelet count was a elevated at 418. Should I be worried about this? Is her levels normal?

Hi,
Welcome to the HCM
Since all the signs of having immature cells in C.B.C , recurrenr fever and dizziness , also age factor can occur in blood disorder ( leukamia).I would suggest that to be on safe side repeat C.B.C and chest xray , and discuss with the haematologist to rule out above mentioned disease as it can be treated if diagnosed at first stage.Other wise previous viral fever can also cause chronic fatigue syndrome but as this age is uncommon for this syndrome so first rule out and blood cells disorder for that bone marrow biopsy may also required to diagnose the cause.
