fevers......

Hi Julianna

Well, it's an ongoing challenge. The last longest hightest temp culminated in pneumonia, early this month; since then I still have temperature fluctuations and terrible night sweats (change clothes 4-6 times/night). I am currently on Levaquin, second round since hospital, and my white count is so low, that may be a contributor. Actually, no one can give me an explanation and I just take it one week at a time. It is quite frustrating as the presence of a fever incicates there is something brewing, but symptoms are often not present.
Hope that helps!
