Hello,
My mother was diagnosed with pneumonia back in October and was given 3 rounds of medication, non of which worked. They did a cat scan at the end of December that showed she still has pneumonia and also said " the results of your CT scan confirm either scarring or post inflammation or an atypical type of ongoing area of infection. . It is stable. Nodules were found in lower left lung. We need to monitor this finding. " results from x-ray: " Left base consolidation persists, which could be from aspiration or pneumonia or atelectasis."

She also has had a constant fever of 101 F-104 F and a high heart rate of 115-190 doing normal activities and sleeping. She is bruising easily and has had blood in her stool. They want to do a bone marrow test but are scared she wont be able to take it because she has constant tachycardia. She is referred to see the pulmonary doctor put he does not have an appt available for 2 months. She is asthmatic and has chronic iron defiant anemia.
I currently do not live with my mother and I am very worried for her health. Do you all have any suggestions on what might be going on?
Thank you
