Did you give the blood culture for fever? If so, how was the spike? Was the fever present continuously or only evening rise in temperature? The report means there is a micrococci species of bacteria in your blood stream which could be the cause for the fever if you had it. The culture will have to undergo resistance testing to prescribe the proper type of antibiotics. Why don't you consult with me after the report arrives so we can plan out an antibiotic course for you? If you found my answer helpful, please leave a like/ thanks. Thank you.
