My former boss once said "I met him before he died" and, when I said "well I should hope so", didn't get it. But he also thinks that the reason you get a fever when you're sick is because the invading bacteria/virus is generating heat in your body as it reproduces. He's a microbiologist.
This blog is entirely for entertainment purposes. All posts about patients, or my everyday life, or anything else may be fictional, or be my experience, or were submitted by a reader, or any combination of the above. Factual statements may or may not be accurate. I could be making all this up. I may not even be a doctor. The only true statement on here is that I probably drink more Diet Coke than you do. A lot more.

The follow-up to this story would be awesome if the answer had been 'after'!
