Thanks for the answer to my medication question.
I would like to revisit Dr Ditah''s response to my chills problem While in the hospital for a different matter, I met the Hospital's Infectious Disease Dr. and told him of my chills problem. He ordered a series of tests to check for an infection. All 7 tests were negative. I still have the uncomfortable feeling each day and I'm asking you for advice. Do you or your colleages at NYP can help with this problem? I'm willing to go to NYP if you think it would be worthwhile.
