Got up this morning and put a pretty dress on Barbara. We headed to the doctor. Dr Parikh was getting ready to leave because she had to take her father to M D Anderson for esophagus cancer
She has been talking to Barbara's oncologist This way all doctors will know what medicine Barbara is taking. She was very worried about the swelling in the legs. We are going to see a cardiologist about her swelling. We do not have any new pain medicine. The doctors agree that the problem in the past is that a high dose of pain medicine was prescribed and that caused a negative reaction in Barbara.
So for now we are just waiting on the oncologist to do the IV medicine to take the swelling down in the brain
We then left the doctors office and headed to Altamont. We made it home at 6. While driving north the oncologist called to tell us that Barbara's blood work looked good and that they were starting to arrange for the IV. So soon we will head back to Baylor Medical Center.
Barbara did good on the trip home. She is tired but glad to be home.
