What a Monday Morning
Started the day hearing Dave didn't have any more emesis during the night, then he got up and told me he had been nauseated every time he got up during the night. So- BP time and it was 104/64 (or something close to that) and his heart rate was 95 (high). Dave has been symptomatic of low BP when it's that low. HERE comes the call to the oncology clinic and Dave had to go in for a blood cultures and a chest x-ray. Since he is keeping fluids down, they are looking for an infection. He goes in tomorrow for another platelet shot and they will see how he is then. It's hard for me to imagine, but Dave is even more tired. He just wants to sleep (understandably and fine as long as he drinks water and eats).... and sleep. The platelet shots (Neumega) will add to the fatigue so I expect the road to the last full chemo may be challenging. Dave is hanging in there and we will make it.
