No definitive answer

Seems we know less now than we did before.  The Dengue diagnosis appears to be a bit of a moving target.   His symptoms in the beginning were classic Dengue, but after 9 nine days of fever, it seems less likely.  We do know that his liver enzymes show inflammation, but, of course, we don't know if it's the reaction of the liver to the original Dengue virus or if there's something else going on.  All of that said, the doctor wants to wait until tomorrow to see him; we will repeat tests on Saturday morning to see if the liver enzymes are dropping or climbing.  In the meantime, he's staying on the antibiotic, we're still dealing with fever that cycles in and out and I've got a guy that just doesn't feel good!  Thanks for continuing to pray.
