As TLC is very low, she should be admitted as fever in this case is a medical emergency. I understand you are in a very tough position. What have you decided for her treatment. Are you planning to go for 2nd line therapy or not.

I am sorry to hear about your concern but will be happy to assist you. Klebsiella pneumoniae is a difficult infection to treat because of the organism's thick capsule. Klebsiella is best treated with third- and fourth-generation cephalosporins, quinolones, or carbapenems. Monotherapy is just as effective as a combination treatment in klebsiella pneumoniae because newer agents are used.

I am sorry to hear about your concern but will be happy to assist you. There is no drug therapy that can cure mf. The only potential cure for mf is allogeneic stem cell transplantation. But this procedure is risky for older patients and those with other health problems. Because mf primarily affects older adults, a stem cell transplantation is not a treatment option for most mf patients.

Sir my sister is a blood cancer patient age 31, treatmenting with imatinib tablet. Since 10 days. But she is suffering pain one by one in her body parts. Like right leg next left leg next hand. What the cause of this.

Its unfortunate that your sister is suffering with blood cancer. As per history she might having cml, and receiving imatinib for treatment. Imatinib is known to cause musculoskeletal pain. Some time simple analgesic is helpful in getting relief of pain but many a times is due to more complex process that involve calcium and phosphate handling of body. I strongly advise you to consult your primary oncologist/hematologist, he might ask for some investigation, and may try to modify dose (depend on recent bcr-abl copy number). Hope this will help you.
