48 hours of heparin and see if that works. If so, you have the dx. If not, then off of antibiotics for that long will probably allow appropriate sx to arise to point you in the right direction.

Also and aside, any eosinophilia?

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
