Hello Again.
Monday was a low fever day (99+ around noon) but Tylenol helped break it rather quickly. Then the usual "sweats" followed. We were a little late for the 1:30 chemo infusion, but it happened. They checked blood and hemoglobin was 9.2 but platelets were low, so we went to the cancer center after the Vidaza and Kathy got her platelets boosted (for those of you less familiar with our health system, the Mankato Clinic and Mayo-Mankato Hospital are all on the same campus--we get the chemo at the clinic infusion center and the transfusions at the hospital cancer center). Kathy got stronger as the day went on and we had a good evening.
Today started with the "sweats" during the night, fever at 99+ at 8:00 am, then Tylenol, then chills, then fever spike at 102+, then temp back down at 10:00 am. We leave for chemo at 12:45, and it looks like a go right now.
I will try to be more consistent with my daily entries.
Enjoy each day.
John

ReplyDeleteThanks for the post. Knowing that this was another chemo day on Monday, I've been thinking about you guys. xxoo Mary O.
ReplyDeleteThe days could have been worse, so I guess we have to be thankful for small favors. Kathy, I want you to get better so we can play online Boggle. OR Scrabble. Your pick!
ReplyDeleteI love you to pieces.
