Fever

Yesterday I woke up with swollen tonsils and glands. I could hardly swallow of cough. I don't really remember much of what I did yesterday. I think I slept. Oh, yeah, I remember. I sort of went into a coma. As in, I slept really, really hard.

In the evening I had all this horrible pain and just lay in bed crying. At one point I took my temp and it was 101.5 . That meant blood cultures so off we went to the ER. I got the blood cultures plus a few other tests and some pain med. Everything came back normal. However, I've been on antibiotics for a week or two and just started a new one yesterday, so that probably made some of the tests look better. I'm going to see the doctor tomorrow morning to get checked out. There's a possibilty that this is viral and that's why antibiotics aren't working.

Today I'm about the same, though not is quite as much pain and my temp is down to 99

I have to admit I'm a bit scared as things like this can be very dangerous for someone waiting for a transplant.

On a legal note, I've just had to deal with getting out of jury duty. Also, my insurance ran out so we're racing to get something figured out until I can get disability. It's a rather stressful time.
