Please advise further course of action as very worried of his health condition. He is currently based in Hyderabad India. Thanks n Regards . Nav Dua
[|AI|]  HelloYour father-in-law is having low grade fever for last three weeks. He is an old diabetic and taking insulin. Fever is still not under control, this type of fever particularly in an old diabetic patient may be due to these reasons, these include.1 Typhoid, as your doctor is suspecting, so get in serology examination for diagnosis confirmation.2 Tuberculosis, another most common cause of such low grade fever for long duration. Get in X-ray chest with blood for CBC, ESR (if >100 mm of 1st hour strongly suggestive of tuberculosis or any chronic infectious disease).3 Jaundice, hepatitis is another reason of such symptoms as he is also having loss of appetite. Diagnosis can be confirmed by HBase for hepatitis. In my opinion consult another physician and get his opinion (2nd one)as physical examination witChatDoctorplete clinical history of illness is important. Good luck.
