Back to the Hospital

Margaret is back at Banner Good Samaritan Hospital... At home yesterday, Margaret had a temperature that continued to climb over the course of the day. BMT patients tend to have a temp a bit higher than normal, so the City of Hope BMT clinic had told us that we should call if her temp went over 100.4 degrees. We did and since she had a Friday morning appointment, they said to keep watching her temp and they'd see her then. But we had to call again if her fever continued to worsen. Well, it did shoot up to 101.8 degrees, so we called again and they told us to bring her in ASAP. She was admitted to the 12th floor again and had IVs started with antibiotics. Hopefully, she won't have to remain there very long.
