Kooplik spots ( white spots that occur inside cheeks)
p
person with sickle cell disease, history of acute chest syndrome with worsening chest tightness at night and dry cough most likely has
what would you do to diagnose?

what lab should you draw for diagnosis?
complement since it lowers complement 3
antigen form IgG ang IgM immune complexes to kidney cells
- will see lower complement 3 , hematuria, and proteinuria
vs IgA nephropathy ( IgA complexes in mesangium)/ Henoch Schonlein purpura
- IgA does not fix complements so will see normal complements
