I am trying to locate an old post about a quad w/ a folley cath that needed to be changed and was causing fever and blood in urine. I have looked for sometime now and am unable to locate it. I came across the same situation a few shifts ago and want to look at the post because I want to know if the symptoms were the same. Thanks in advance everyone!
Help Me PLEASE

Wow, you're almost like Rain Man when it comes to this stuff.

Thank you so much! I looked and looked! I guess I just wasn't holding my mouth right! Symptoms were a bit different with the blood being present but the B/P and the sweating above the collarbone was there. Something just told me to have it checked, when I mentioned it to the DR he looked at me like I was crazy. Follow up proved right, it was the folley causing everything due to infection. I was sooooo hoping I wasn't wrong on that one, I have a way of blurting things out and forgeting who I am talking to, the DR is a smart a** anyways and I was so glad I got it right! Thanks again!
