fatal if left untreated

It wasn't JUST a fever. My prognosis was correct - my kidneys are messed up. Apparently I've got a severe bacterial infection of the kidneys hence why I've been having abnormally high fevers. So now I'm on Ciprofloxacin... hoping to get better soon. I scared my mom when I joined her to drink soup for dinner because all my clothes were absolutely drenched in sweat. It looked like I had just finished a run or something and this was all within a 10 minute period of changing into dry clean clothes.

Then again I'm downing at least 3L of water a day to help clear everything up. I would have had blood and pus in the urine had I not gone to the doctor any sooner. I love you guys.

wow, I didn't know it was that bad. Kidneys are something never to fuck with. Good thing you went to the doctor when you did. Get well soon.

Yeah, broken down kidneys = miserableness. I hope I get well soon too - thank you
