Day 38 post transplant
Lots of bits and bobs to report today, based on my conversation yesterday:
- magnesium/potasium infusions have been shortened to one hour a day, and supplemented by oral doses. Wow!
-Friday spent a long day at the Hutch: froom about noon till about 10pm due to Margie needing blood product. Her hematacrit was down as well as hemaglobin.
-Lumbar puncture scheduled for tuesday this week to find out if there are any L cells in the spinal fluid
-Still feeling like a "20" on a scale from 1 to 100.
- having one regular throw up a day, usually after breakfast (I can see your thought bubble: yuck. ) that's life folks.
-visits scheduled with the nutritionist this week as well as the physical therapist.
The upside to all of that is that Margie and Robert have a little more "time" due to her getting progressively better. It's obviously a slow road, but seems like she's taking small steps (literally and figuratively) toward getting better all of the time.
Bravo, Margie!
