neutropenic fever? - possibly
Had my first fever of the adventure tonight. Started 99.6, then 100.6, then 102.3 within about an hour. Blood cultures and cefapine (broad spectrum antibiotic) in addition to my normal voriconazole, actigol, levaquin, acyclovir, clindamycin….
Feel a little like a drama queen, but i really want to be on top of infections since I am at day +7 and have and of .49. after about 2 hours of rising temps, fever breaks (no sweat) and back down to 99.
Another day in the transplant unit eh?
