Glad you’re doing well George. Keep up the PT, the results will be rewarding.

sounds like you're making good progress

This has been something different. At times, such as right now, I've got the leg elevated, wearing compression socks, a pair of shorts but with a pair of sweats over them, a heavy Carhart T, with a heavy flannel shirt. And covered up with a blanket. Its 73° in the house. This will last for a bit then I have to start removing some items.
Been this way since surgery. Yup, I've googled it too

Its just good to hear you're up and getting around.

 

[ENCORE50A]

I think the wife may be wanting to hit me with a stick. Temp is running 104.6° and she's talking ER.....

 

[JeffB1961]

dude you need to go to the ER .

 

[michiganmuzzy]

Yep, get to the hospital

 

[phalanx]

Ya you need to go Geogre, that is way too high!

 

[BuffaloSoldier]

Take all that very seriously, they'll get you going again before you know it.

Spent 7hrs in ER. The fever broke as I got there. Covid test, influenza test, 1/2 pint of blood then came back and got two more large vials. They took me for a CAT of my lungs.

EVERY TEST FOR ANY TYPE OF INFECTION CAME BACK NEGATIVE!!! WTH???

One test that takes some time is looking for bacteria in the blood. Doctor told me no news is good news on this one.

They have absolutely no clue why I had the fever and why it was so high.

those slippers are looking mighty comfortable too. If only they had little green alligators on 'em like the old days.

Looks super fine to me , I’m 6 months out from total rt shoulder replacement still hardly and strength in rt arm.

 

[JeffB1961]

ENCORE50A glad you're doing better

Encore50a, keep the faith man n keep the cube full that helped me so much but I think it did give me the shivers a few times. I would cover up n sit with it running it did make my knee better. DON'T GIVE UP ON THE PT. The recumbent bike was my warm up every time, I hated that thing. Carefully push your bending after pt to get the most but only to the pain point then stop you will be out n in the woods soon! I saw in the other post about bleeding, bleed stop can be purchased at walgreens, fantastic stuff check it out. I carry it in my backpac just in case.

About those doctors:

 

[ENCORE50A]

Just received a call from one of the ER nurses. They found some kind of bacteria in my blood. If I feel bad or sick.. IN ANY WAY... come to the ER.
If not, call primary doc in the morning.

 

[ENCORE50A]

Heavy doses of Cephalexin (Keflex) every 4hrs for 10days.
Temp is running 101° and steady.
Just tired. I think not getting home until 2am the other night is catching up with me.
