I warmly Welcome you!

Thanks for consulting me at virtual clinic. I have carefully worked through your case, and I can realize your health worries. Being your physician, I assure you not to worry as I will take care all of your medical concerns.

CT shows shrinkage and nonfunctional brain areas extensively present. That's why he is in coma.
Ultrasound shows splenomegaly, that has a lot of pathological reasons.

You need to comply with the treatment which is going on in hospital. Hope he copes with all of this.

If you need further, detailed and quick assistance related to any health issues, feel free to 'ask me a question' directly from my profile. You can also attach Lab reports and pictures with direct question.
