Default Home from hospital
I've been in the hospital for the past week with a fever (3 weeks now) of unknown origin, shingles, diverticulitis and generalized internal inflammation. After a week on two IV antibiotics, I switched to oral yesterday and went from IV narcotic pain med to oral. Very weak and in a lot of pain but temp has been down for nearly 48 hours.

Oh dear Cherie,
I hate to hear about this. How are you faring now? I've heard shingles are maddly painful, especially in those of us with MS. Were you on anything like "VALTREX" for them? I'm sorry to hear of your woes, and hope you are on the mend soon.

How bloody awful. Please let me know if there is anything I can do for you. Rest up now, and don't try and do too much.

My best wishes to you,

Chris
