My temperature spiked as expected it would do at some point. This was on sunday evening. I was put onto IV antibiotics of various forms and some blood taken from my PICC line and straight from a vein. The sample from the vein is used to determine if the PICC line is the source of the infection.
The next day I was shagged and slept for a fair bit of it.
On tuesday I had to make sure I kept taking panadol every four hours otherwise I would get the rigors. Brought back memories of the leg infection.
Then on wednesday I get a stinking headache which would not go away. No idea what caused it but it was not much fun.
I stopped taking the antifungal medication a couple of days ago and my liver returned to normal very quickly. They have now put me on a different antifungal medication. It is an interesting effect – a chance of hallucinations. I haven’t had any yet although I did turn the lights off last night and it was as though someone had turned a strobe light on somewhere, the whole room was flashing at a rapid rate between light and dark. Even more fun with my eyes shut.
BTW: The antifungal medication is to prevent fibrosis of the lungs. Nasty.
I have also moved rooms due to renovations and the ‘superbug’. I picked up the superbug during one of my previous visits.
I will post a photo later of my new room.
