My fever picked up again yesterday (probably because I was being more lax with the Tylenol & Motrin), so we called the Plastic Surgeon & he wound up telling us to go to the ER to get a myriad of tests. Since he's so far away there was no point in driving way up there. So after my being scared as heck & doing a 3 hour (pretty quick IMO) ER visit which included urinalysis, blood labs & cultures [need to grow for days], and chest x-rays we got... I'm okay. We think, it could be a virus *rolls eyes*. Bah! Slightly elevated white blood cell count, slightly anemic (I'm attributing that to still draining in my abdomen). So I have a fever that has gotten worse apparently (because I can not sleep well anymore probably) and we have no clue why. Boo!
Recovering from surgery wise everything is good (obviously no signs of infection since Docs have checked), minimal pain etc. I'm just tired of feeling poopie! I want the fever gone dang it, my body is busy enough healing other stuff than to deal with that too!
Hey How you doing today?
ReplyDeleteHave you heard back from the Hospital on the cultures?
Do you go back to the Doctor's on Monday?
