I woke up this morning feeling shaky with what seemed like a fever. I already had a scheduled appointment at the Wound Care Clinic, so after that I headed over to Quick Care to get checked out.
The good news is they were able to rule out an infection in my hip wound. It’s healing well and shows no signs of being infected, which was a huge relief.
The next thing they checked was for a UTI, and the initial test came back looking positive for some pretty nasty bacteria. So now I’m back on antibiotics while they culture the sample to figure out exactly what’s growing.
It just feels like every time I think I’m turning a corner, something else pops up. I’m really hoping this is just a minor detour and not the start of another long chapter.
Dammit!
