My Dad is still sick

My Dad was released from the hospital yesterday and was feeling much better.  Today I called him and his temp was once again 102 degrees and he could barely walk across the room.  He sounded very sick on the phone.  Barbara is going to take him to the Doctors at 2:00 this afternoon.  He has had an infectious disease doctor look at him as well as his regular doctors and they chalked it off to a virus.  Dad said it could be an autoimmune "issue".  He has polymyalgia rheumatica (sp???) which he has been taking pregnasone for a couple of years.   His regular doctor said he had seen symptoms like this with a patient years ago that turned out to be typhoid.  I can't believe my father could have picked up typhoid....but who knows???   It is much harder going through any illness when you are in your 80s.

As my Dad often says....."Old age is not for sissies!"   I am very worried about him.
