Bulgarian term

blona

Bulgarian to English Medical Medical: Cardiology medical report
I am checking a translation. The translator translated the word "blona" by female patient. It's quite feasible in the context, but what is this strange word I cannot find?

ill/sick

Just throwing in my two cents'worth.

It could be the misspelled or jumbled up adjective болна (ill/sick) (feminine singular), as in болна жена.
Note from asker:
thank you. This is a typo that a native will pick up easily, but a foreigner may miss, and did.
Peer comment(s):

agree Petar Tsanev : Also, болен/болна for male/female patient.

Thank you, zenithmaster! Yes, a misspelled version of the masculine-singular form of the adjective too.
agree Ana Dimitrova : Sounds pretty possible to be "bolna" and then, this is the meaning.
