Fever

On Sunday afternoon, I began to alternate between hot and cold flashes. A temperature check revealed that I was in the 101-102 F range. A couple of Tylenols knocked this down into the normal range, but Monday morning brought more of the same. The oncologist ordered a set of blood and urine tests, and a chest X-ray. Diagnosis: a touch of pneumonia. So now an antibiotic has been added to the mix of medications I have to keep track of, and yet another one that can cause drowsiness, as if I needed that.
