CERVICAL INJECTION
Ron has had problems with his neck and shoulders over numerous months; after a visit to his bone and joint physician, they decided to try cervical injections (makes me kinda' sick thinking about it).
A couple of weeks ago (after wonderful mind altering drugs) Ron received cervical injections (eeeehhhh); he spent the day completely oblivious to the world - and his blood sugar went totally out of control - over 500. The following day was no different - sleeping and high blood sugar. Finally on the second day after surgery he felt a little more like himself.
A follow-up visit (which was a waste of co-pay) the doctor decided Ron wasn't a candidate for the additional two injections (we had already decided Ron wasn't having any more injections) due to high blood sugar (duh).
FEVER
But the craziest thing has been happening to Ron over the past month - fevers - not everyday or every other day - low grade - and over 101. The doctors aren't sure what is happening. Ron has an appointment to see a doctor in the transplant clinic tomorrow.
I'm not a doctor - but I'm wondering if the Hep C has begun attacking the new liver and the body is trying to fight the infection.
I'll update after the appointment tomorrow.
