    Tdx: ICH/ Leptospirosis/ E.canis/ Dehydrations/ Fatty liver/
    take blood , check for TC,DC,Platellet, Hb,creatinine,ALP...
    treat symtomatically as u are doing. at this point nothing much is clear. enlarged livers on USG are very common due to food habbits. urinary incontinence may be due to Dehydration. Give fluid properly. Avoid DNS and RL.use M
