Worried again

Mina Brigitta's fevers have returned. Last night she spiked to 38.3, which is right at the borderline of what they officially call a fever. As a result, they scheduled a CT scan today to check for absesses or any sign of a fungal infection. They found that her lungs had some "infiltration" and some other problems, but not enough to affect her breathing too much at this point. The CT scan pretty much confirmed what the chest X-rays have been showing, which is good. The doctors are also taking comfort in how well she's doing otherwise -- she was pretty energetic and playful, despite flirting with a fever all day today.

Then tonight she spiked all the way to 39, which is 102.2. But she was feeling quite chipper again after some Tylenol. They restarted one of the antibioitics that they'd stopped, and it's again taken them awhile to find a therapeutic dose, so hopefully the fevers will subside once that one kicks in. It wouldn't be a very good sign if the fevers continued, since she's now on three major antibiotics plus an antifungal. We'll see what happens over the next few days.
