Back in Hospital

I know I said on my last post that I wouldn't update for awhile. But when things get hard it helps me to do the updates. Yesterday(Sunday) Scott took his temperature like he does every morning. It was definately a fever at 39.2 degrees Celcius. After calling the transplant team they said to wait and see if it got better by the evening. Unfortunatley it didn't and the chills started. So they told us to go into Emergency. It was a short wait in the waiting area when the doctor calls to say you are coming. After getting a bed in the ER they did a bunch of blood work and hooked Scott up to everything (blood pressure cuff, heart monitor, IV etc.) His fever kept rising. At one point it was 41.7!!!! They told us they were going to admit him for an infection. He had a rough night with blood pressure dropping and a high heart rate, body-shaking chills and a consult with the ICU doctors. In the morning they took out the dialysis line from his neck. It looks like that was probably the source of the infection. We won't know for sure until the results come back from the tests on it.
After a night and a morning in an ER bed Scott was finally admitted to the CICU. Back to that place again. His fever is getting better but he's just plain wore out from fighting this big infection. Hopefully it's a good night tonight and the antibiotics do their job. I'm praying for a short hospital stay!
