They finally found something: a bacterial infection (they had been looking
for viruses until now, which explains why it took so long to find the cause
of the problems). He got two injections of penicilline at the hospital and
it is expected that everything should be back to normal within five weeks.
But they are afraid that it's not the only problem, so they are still
looking...
