Kery, that reminds me of the day we went to our "family Doc" to get him to check out a low grade fever John had. This was about a month post rad. treatments and I asked if he should do some blookwork. Dr. J's answer was that any tests would have screwed up results for months after treatment. It was a "damned if you do and damned if you don't" kind of answer. I've found that I just have to keep watching John, asking questions about how he feels and go with my gut instinct about getting him to a Doctor. Not a fun position to be in, but it comes with the territory. It is really tough when you are dealing with someone who simply does NOT want to see another Doctor and just wants to be left alone. I know you feel lke you are walking a very shaky tightrope. Hang in there. Amy
