No such luck! : (
Linda developed a fever this morning and with her low WBC, she had to be readmitted for possible sepsis.
As we got into the hospital, the pain came on with a vengeance, so we would have had to go to the hospital anyway.
She is terribly discouraged, but the pain relief available in the hospital is a godsend.
The rate at which the chemo decimated the bone marrow is amazing. The lab work this afternoon showed the WBC to be 400. Last Wednesday (13th) it was 2200. The platelets were 8,000 today vs 102,000 4 days ago. She was very weak this morning and the Hemoglobin was 6.6 vs 9.6 on the 13th.
She is on 3 antibiotics pending results of the blood cultures as well as getting platelets and blood transfusions.
We are praying for a short stay again this trip.
I'm sorry. The comment I posted earlier this morning was before I received your last report. You are in my prayers. Alberta
ReplyDeleteOh Linda- you have had to endure so much. If I could, I would take your pain.
ReplyDeleteYou'll be home again. Hang in there!
Love you-
Deb.
I am so sad to hear that you are in hospital again and experiencing so much pain. I hope the hospital stay and meds do their work and that you can come home. Praying for you, Linda

I pray the hospital stay is a short one. I am praying for your peace of mind and Dave's strength until you are home again.
