ER...Again.

We went in again to the ER last night. I had a good fever and couldn't get in touch with my doctor or any of the nurses there. We weren't too sure what to do, so I left a message with them and went into the ER. Having a fever so soon after the other stuff that's gone on could be a sign of some really bad stuff. They did bloodwork and other tests to see if I was fighting an infection, but didn't find anything (thank goodness!). My white blood cell count was low enough to indicate my body was beating whatever was wrong. The doctor said my symptoms were probably just an unlucky combination of everything going on at once. Fortunately, babies are fine and the most dangerous complications seem to be improving.

I have been waiting for this all day - thanks for updating! After talking to you last night I found the papers from my Dr.'s office and they said to be concerned if the fever increased to over 101 - hope this doesn't happen again!

My doctor said "don't worry".
