Right after da and chemo ended. Face and neck was sore and red, but no pus. I had a high fever and a really low WBC so ended up in the hospital for 9 days (!!) It was so long mainly because they were checking for signs of any other nastier kind of infection too but never found any --and yet the fever kept spiking up high. I hope your Dad's cellulitis doesn't take as long to heal.
