RE: Thanks to Terry and ? re: flu and tap

The fact that your fever is gone this morning makes it unlikely you're

suffering agranulocytosis from the tap. Usually that involves a sore throat

and very high fever that doesn't go away. If you're concerned, it wouldn't

hurt to check it out. I did it once when I had a sore throat and fever

shortly after starting ATDs. I was fine. It's really very rare.

Thanks to Terry and ? re: flu and tap

O.K., I have a flu bug and had the big fever last night. The fever

has gone this morning, but with all the warning I have received about

fever and taking tap (suppresion of immune system, do I have to drag

myself to the doctor?)

What have all of you done in this situation?

Thanks to Terry, yup,,,it was the flu!!
