Hi Doctor! The doctor told me that my father had chronic pancreatitis and had been treated in 2 big hospitals, was fine, and had a fever for 5 days when he returned home. My father has comorbidities such as pulmonary effusion, cirrhosis of the liver, and blood clotting disorder.

Fever is defined as a body temperature of 38 degrees Celsius or higher. Fever is a protective response of the immune system against pathogens. Thus, fever is a beneficial response, however, children with fever are often accompanied by fussiness, discomfort, loss of appetite and weight loss.

Tuberculous meningitis is a rare condition in patients infected with Mycobacterium Tuberculosis (MTB) but has the highest risk of death among all types of tuberculosis today. More dangerously, the signs of tuberculosis meningitis are often similar to many other diseases, making timely detection and treatment difficult.
