Thanks for the link to the trials. Too bad they take so long before they can publish anything. But I think there's a lot that's been shared already based on previous observations.

Interesting about the fever and infection. Sometimes, when a fever/infection presents itself in this way it may just be part of the healing process. When the immune system is weak, bacteria and viruses can linger in the body without symptoms because the immune system is unable to deal with it. But as the immune system improves, you may find small infections starting to clear. Fevers are part of the healing process. The difficulty is determining if it's just part of the healing process or if it's a new issue. But it sounds like you dealt with it just fine.

Wishing you great success with this and thank you for sharing your experience.
