fever and back pain

[Guest guest]

Hi Y'all

 

I have a 21 y/o patient with severe back pain. Pain began about six hours

after she hoisted a heavy water bottle unto a cooler. L4, L5, S1 intense pain

and pressure with pain referring to right hip and pelvic area bilaterally.

Sciatic involved, GB channel taut at all trigger points.

 

Tongue: slightly purple, moist.

Pulse extremely rapid and rolling at heart, sp.

 

Hands and feet cold, almost clammy and complained of severe occipital and

right temple headache. BP 130/70, Temp 102.6 degrees Farenheit. I recommended

she go to the nearest hospital ER due to the fever as I wanted to rule out

kidney infection, meningitis, tumor, ectopic pregnancy etc. The hospital ran the

usual tests: urinalysis, blood work, CT scan, X-rays, even pelvic exam. Nothing.

Nada. No diagnosis. Not pregnant. Everything normal, including sedimentation

rate and WBC (a tad low).

 

Today her temp is hovering at 99 degrees Farenheit inspite of rx for pain and

fever, Pulse 88, rolling, KI a bit thready. Back pain reduced by AP tx using

microcurrent. She is not currently taking any medications, or other drugs and

has no history of thyroid or other endocrine problems. Occasional smoker. No

street drugs or alcohol history.

 

What am I missing regarding this persistence in the elevated temperature?

Thanks for all your generous help.
