Rachel Croteau hasn't added a story.
Hello Everyone, I am Rachel Croteau and Matthew Zimmerman is my Brother. Matthew recently relocated to Pennsylvania from Idaho. He has always been a hard worker with strong work ethic so it's no surprise he found work right away. Unfortunately his medical insurance does not take effect until August 1st 2018 and will not cover and past bills. Two or so weeks ago he started to get sick with flu like symptoms that turned into a full body rash, horrible hot flashes and night sweats, vomiting, bloody noses, constant migraine, black tar like stools, abdominal pain, testicular pain, skin painful to the touch, entire body aches with joint pain with high fever. I had originally taken him to the Hershey Med center who blew him off with a viral infection with rash diagnosis and discharged him from the ER. The following morning his fever was so high he started hallucinating and I rushed him to Harrisburg Hospital who admitted him on 7/20/2018. They have been running multiple tests including but not limited to Spinal tap, CT scans, ultrasound, blood, urine and fecal samples. They have ruled out Malaria, tick borne diseases, meningitis.. they have him on multible antibiotics to cover a wide array of possible infections. They have already ruled out what they thought he had and are back to step one. I pray they find the answer soon. I will continue to update as needed and I ask that you consider making a donation to help cover his accruing medical costs. Anything will help and will be greatly appreciated. Please say a prayer or send good vibes his way and for his medical team to figure this out. Share with your friends and family please. Thank you so much and God bless!!
