Nope, but I have super sensitive skin and a constantly snotty nose. So anything is possible related to damaged immune system. How high is fever. Maybe need different antibiotic.

No antibiotic worked. No virus found I'm just one of a kind, I guess.

I had a fever on and off for the first couple of months. I kept getting a bladder infection. I was put on antibiotics and have been good since.

Did you catch a summer cold, or something?

No. I think they finally decided it was little bit of pneumonia

It sounded more like something like that due to our immunodeficiency. Hopefully they hit you with enough antibiotics to kick the whole thing. A lot of times it takes two times the amount you normally would have needed. Make sure that doesn't linger, I hope you go back for follow ups. I believe fever was something they really watched for with Ibrantz.

Yeah I have to go to the ER if I get a fever above100.5. It's a pain.
