I got a fever last night and one of my drainage tubes started leaking from the insertion site. I was worried and called the Dr. She had me go in the morning and she removed the drains and put on a gauze dressing and dressed the incision also. That has come apart a little and is also draining. She said it looks ok but she wants me down Monday to check it again.
I also went and saw the oncologist today, Dr. Keefe. He was very nice and explained everything. I am going for a CT and bone scan in one week. That should give them an idea if the cancer has spread at all. What those tests say will determine my course of treatment. If I am going to start chemo it looks as if that will start in about a month. Good news is that I can also take a shower now! Yippee! Now if I could just wake up and find some ambition....
Sending up more prayers for you.
