Re: Been in the hospital - so glad to be home
I'm feeling better but still having temp issues. Last night my husband said I felt warm and my temp was 100.3 but didn't get any higher. I was finally able to cough up some mucus and will be taking that to my onc appt Wednesday at 4:00.
Tonight my temp got up to 99.3 but then went back down. Find this strange. Not that it made any difference but I took my Levaquin earlier tonight than last night. When I left the hospital I was not having a temp at all. I also spent most of today in bed to see if that made any difference.....
I'm still having leg pain and I have this pain in my lower back that doesn't want to seem to go away. Been having that for a couple of weeks now.
Will discuss all of this with my doc on Wednesday. Feeling like a big time whiner these days.
Thanks for all your well wishes and advice
