Thank you for your response. The patient's white count is normal, however, with a left shift. USG OK. A mild inflammatory process continues although I don't believe there is a possibility of immunosuppression. Tuberculosis and Clamydia are being pursued. Fungus is also a consideration since she acquired this condition in a tropical climate. Re: Fungus. Is this a typical presentation or could it be something exotic? Doxycycline has had a major impact on symptoms, any thoughts? Thanks again. Sincerely, Olin

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
