My PALS had a fever last night that made him pretty uncomfortable. It responded to ibuprofen and this morning he's feeling much better. This has happened a couple of times before but last night was more unsettling - he was frightened and felt he was dying (his description). I know fevers can make you feel terrible and can also happen with no known cause at times but I was wondering if this is something others with ALS experience or if I should be responding differently in the future if it happens again. If it were pneumonia or another infection, it wouldn't go away without antibiotics, correct? Thanks for any input.
