My husband had an ecoli infection in his blood, his kidneys shut down, high fever. We went to the ER and spent 5 days in the hospital being treated with massive amounts of antibiotics. He has had left shoulder pain which goes into his upper back, up his neck and into the base of the skull. On a scale of 1-10 this is above a 10. This has been going on for 12 days now with no relief even when on pain meds. Any idea what this could be?
