Nervous

Lucas had a fever 103.8 at 12 noon. We are nervously waiting to see if it will come back any time soon. If he still has fever tomorrow (day 7), he will get cat scan for lungs and sinus, and start another antibiotics for possible blood fungi infection (though the blood cultures have been negative). The attending oncologist said he would bet his house on the fever is from low ANC and it's just taking Lucas longer to have ANC recover this time (right, I was not kidding when I said the last four weeks of consolidation chemo had hit him pretty hard). My instinct tells me this is the case also. But we need the fever spell to break so we don't need the CT and extra antibiotics tomorrow.
