An episode of House

What is going on??  I feel like I am in an episode of House...I have a team of Hospitalists (intern, resident, attending), Gastro Docs, waiting for a consultation with an Infectious Disease doc.  I have blood draws from two different sites whenever I spike a fever, and depending on results, the I get two large bags of fluid and/or two or three bags of antibiotics. Then I have the daily wake up blood draw...literally I do not know how many more sites they can find. Feel ok...but they are worried because they are pumping me full of antibiotics and still getting fevers...they see a body of fluid that the current drain won't get to so they may put in a second drain...I laugh at what it will look like.. but whatever causes the fevers to subside and the infection to get under control. I have been so cold in my room...even without a fever...I asked where the thermostat was set and I was told it was off...yikes! I have been freezing for no reason for three days...

I am going to try to get some rest.
