Hi,I am Dr. Amitkumar Sharma (Internal Medicine Specialist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have a very close friend who has lymes x 6 years. Just got a port and is doing abx infusions twice a day 3 days on 4 days off for the past 2 months. He took a 2 week break and today started treatment again. 2 hours after infusion he is running 101.9 chills/sweats. Vitals normal 119/79 hr 86. I am concerned because his temp keeps rising so quickly. Please advise. Er?
HI Well come to HCM I really appreciate your concern, differential diagnosis is matter of concern as long as the febrile condition is concern, may needs some test like complete blood count and x-ray or chest hope this information helps.
