At long last, after these many weeks, Gary has turned the corner. He’s not totally healed, but he can go through the night without a fever, though not through a whole day.
He was even feisty enough to try to pick an argument with me, but I did not engage. It was a sign of good health.
What has he had? I don’t care. The doctor’s office checked up on him, which was nice. I don’t know what he told them. I don’t care. All I know is I’d rather have a feisty troublemaker than a big lump of feverish flesh in the bed.
Hooray for Gary being on the mend!

KC - well, the current theory is that his thyroid numbers are wonky and that’s why he’s had a month of fevers.

Wonky in a fixable way or just wonky? (I'm hoping wonky in a fixable way, because it sounds like he has been miserable and you haven't exactly been thrilled about it either!)

KC - I think he needs a few more weeks to adjust to the higher dose, or else he really has swung from hypo to hyperthyroid. All fixable.

Oh, good! I'm glad it's all fixable! Sad feverish lump of semi-Gary is not a good thing.

KC - well, let’s hope.
