Increased Level of D-Dimer & CRP
She is having fever and dry cough for last 2-3 days; and has already given sample for RTPCR. Meanwhile, she is being treated as if it's a Covid Case. She has an 8 months old baby. We have also given samples for CRP and D-Dimer.
She is also a patient of Hypo Thyroid and is taking Thyroxin 5 mg/day regularly.
What medication should be taken if CRP and D-Dimer counts are on higher side? What is the level beyond which hospitalization becomes essential? She is being home treated by a family general physician at present.
