Fever Still Lingering
I 'm feeling slightly better after a few more doses of antibiotic but my post-tick-bite fever is still lingering. I still have a long way to go with the antibiotic so I'm still very early in the treatment which means I probably shouldn't be surprised by the lingering fever. It is only a low grade fever but I am also taking NSAIDs which should be lowering the fever yet I still do have one so, without the NSAIDs, I can't help but wonder how high would my fever be? I'm a bit more fatigued than what is "normal", I think. It is difficult to discern what might be due to my primary illness (Systemic Mastocytosis) or due to this tick bite. I am inexplicably exhausted though. Hmmm... maybe I should take some extra medications for my primary illness just in case this is related to that. (EDIT: I just did take extra medications.) Sheila and I did some grocery shopping this evening and I felt rather crappy through that relatively short out...
