I’m at the end of week two. For at least three of the last few nights I go to bed cold and achey. Usually, I have to wait a little bit before I can take some more Tylenol so I go to bed and then I wake up and I’m super achy and freezing I take the Tylenol I get back in bed and then it feels like I break a fever and I’m drenched in sweat. Tonight I decided to take my temperature and it was 99.8. They told me to reach out if it was 100.4. (Remember, I’m from the US). Anyone else experience something like this week two has by far been better than week one I’m looking forward to my weekend off! Grateful for all of you. I have Sent a note to my palliative care doctor.

  • Hello Ruben w us,

    That sounds really rough, and definitely worth getting checked out by your doctor. Have you had your blood results this week? It sounds like possibly an infection of some sort. Please make sure you let everyone in your treatment team know what you’re experiencing.

    In the uk we are given a number to call if we develop a temperature, an alert card. I’m no expert but it does sound like you need to be medically checked to be on the safe side. I’m sorry that you’re going through this and hope that all will be okay. Let us know how you get on. Xx
