Roaring or is it rearing to go? Want to get things moving. Got an e-mail from Aunt Jan (she is planning on coming in Nov 27th) and she asked about more details of the findings of the recent bone marrow biopsy.Dr. Illera does not recommend increasing Prednisone until assured of firm diagnosis (esp. no infection present). Dr. Illera is talking to Dr. Buth today and suggesting Pop be started on Neurontin or Lyrica to see if it will help with pain management and we can reduce the narcotics. Man, I love her---she is on it!! Will ask Dr. Illera to look into the bone marrow biopsy findings and if there are any further recommendations for additional testing on the 28th. Will also be with Pop on the 28th, visit with the diagnostic radiologist prior to the procedure to discuss possibility of additional testing to obtain firm diagnosis.
Pop was up 2 times during the night for pain medication. He ate cookies and a banana for breakfast and is now resting in the recliner with his pooch posse. He "feels a little better today."
Kat and Kelli---thanks for getting in touch with everyone yesterday since the blog was unavailable.
Love,
Mom
