Hi all!I have been on iv's for the last 3 wks. Since it was close to my last round of iv's, my dr. switched up my antibiotics and put me on Zosyn instead of my usual ceftaz. Well, the day before Easter I spiked a fever of 101. On Easter it went up to 103, so I called the hospital and they wanted me to come in. While in the hospital, my fever went up to 105. To make a long story short, it turned out to be the Zosyn. Apparently, there is an increased risk of this kind of fever response in CF patients (which makes me wonder why they would use it in CF, esp when I am sensitive to other antibiotics.) Just thought I would pass this along so that others may avoid my experience.Mary
