Thanks Pat and to anyone else listening...
I won't know anything till I go back March 22nd.
Dr. said hundreds of things cause fevers of an undetermined nature, not just cancer which is my scary thought.
He sent me for more a lot more blood tests including hormonal ones.
Monday, I am to go to the XRay dept at the hospital for an injection of a radioactive dye that attaches itself to anything suspicious.
I get the scan 24 hours later, so Monday and Tuesday at the hospital. I have to keep a temperature chart, 3x a day till my appt on the 22nd and when I feel very hot, to put a red star next to it, as some times I can be the same temp and feel like I am burning up and other times just warm.
I am hoping that it is hormonal but scared. My father's father died of cancer in his early 60's and My mother's father died young and she never knew from what. Both grandmothers lived into their 80's.
My late parents and living sister did not/do not have cancer. I do not have any abnormal swelling or glands or weight loss.
This daily fever low grade daily fever has been going on since Jan. 23rd; 5 days after cataract surgery.
Thanks for listening and for your support :-)
