So when the mrs took my temp around noon it was 103. We went to the ER. I have waves of feeiing better, then worse and my temp went from 100 to 103 several times while there.

They put in an iv antibiotic and prescribed a stronger one. The RN said I had a "raging infection" and that a high percentage of people with catheters start getting them after three days.

They don't know what bacteria it is yet. I hope its not one of those antibiotic resistant ones.
