fever ....

in 2009 from may to july, my mother had around 65 days high fever... was in several hospitals, they gave her several kinds of antibiotics and many blood transfusions.. and nothing changed around 2 months...suffered because of high fever 38-39.5 C.
after 60 days her fever started to decrease by itself..
doctors couldnt diagnose anything...
after fever decreased to 37-37.5C in july, doctors decided to start cortisone and send her back home, without any diagnosis.. .. 40 mg cortisone started and decreased the dosage time to time untiill december 2009.. then she stoped taking cortisone.

and february 2010 she got very sick, very bad pneumonia, got several blood transfusions..
in april 2010, she had her first bone morrow biopsy!!! and min % 50 blast AML ...
may 2010 she had intensive chemo.
since july 2010 she is on videza...
