Thanks for the kind words and support. Here's a not too pretty update.
I woke up about 1 a.m. shivering a lot..more than usual. It took me a long time to reach up and turn off the AC. Got back under the covers and it probably took an hour to get warm enough to get up and take ibuprofen and take my temperature.
It was 104.2. I took the ibuprofen and drank a lot of water, paused, then threw up 3 times. I don't remember the last time that happened and hope to forget this episode soon.
I took more ibuprofen and laid back down. I think the fever dropped fairly fast once the AC was back on. This has been one bad night.
I'm calling my doctors exchange(this morning)to lite a fire under his behind although I think he's doing what he can. This fever may change the urgency..I don't know.
Monday, hopefully the labs will show something.
My fever now is around 100 which is tolerable.I want to tell you guys how much your support has meant to me over the years. Y'all are some mighty special people to me.
