Another day, another fever

Still no relief from the fevers. Last night she was awake until 11 pm, then woke up again spiking a fever about midnight. She was pretty listless this morning, then spiked another fever around 1 pm. They tried to do another CT scan this afternoon, but the Ativan they gave her to calm her down had kind of the opposite reaction. She got really wired and agitated, and refused to lie still for the scan. The feeling carried over into the room, where it's pretty hard to contain her when she's like that. Tomorrow they're going to sedate her and try the CT scan again.

The good news is that her neutrophil counts are up to 2100, which is now well within the normal range, so she should be more and more able to respond. The doctors keep telling us that she can fight off whatever it is much better than they can. Auntie Teri thought she'd turned a corner when she woke up in a clammy sweat this afternoon. She's feverish again tonight, but only slightly so. Maybe Auntie's on to something...
