The MD seems to share the attitude here about weight so between here and her I'm mellowing out about it.

I confess I was waking him up this weekend. He slept so much this weekend(he's usually pretty good about his own schedule). I bet he was calling me every name in the book but with no voice he had to do it all in his head(a new form of marriage counseling. LOL).

He ended up with a fever this weekend(which explains the sleeping) and we ended up in the ER. What an experience. It wasn't connected to Sloan and was another advertisement for making sure you go a CCC when possible. They knew squat about CA. They put him down as being there for a sore throat because he was hoarse. Plus they were much more concerned with the person who was shot in the butt. They put the hospital on lock down in case it was gang related. It wasn't the least bit helpful medically but it wasn't boring.

Anyway, thankfully we saw his MD today. He is on antibiotic as a precaution(she thinks it's viral)and no more fever. Phew.
But tomorrow he goes for a transfusion because his hemoglobin is low.
Haven't heard that mentioned here. Anyone else experience that? She said it will help his energy and the healing.
And with all that she is very pleased with his progress. Go figure.
But I do see some improvement in the last two days myself.
He hasn't had any queasy or stomach issues throughout this. Hold on, I have to go frantically knock wood...
Pain is there but better. little by little...all in the right direction...
