Well it has been quite a ride since we got out of the hospital Tues, Jan 6th. Dan has now developed some memory problems and a problem with him following to sleep when he is still within a minute of being still. Blood pressure is also staying up and I am very frustrated that they can't seem to figure this out.
We are going for a MRI of the Brain this evening as there is a possibility that these problems are swelling on the brain which is a side effect you can get from the Tacrolimus medication he has to take daily to prevent complications from the transplant.
I must say I am getting a bit tired--mainly because things are becoming more difficult for me to handle on my own. When I know what to do to help him make things better it is much more easy to bare--but when I don't know how to help him it becomes oh so exhausting.
We will see how this MRI goes this evening. The APN and the Pharmacist here in the ATC clinic are wonderful and they are as frustrated as I am--so they are being a very good sounding board for me.
As always Dan and I appreciate all the wonderful good thoughts and prayers from everyone.
Rhonda stay strong as I know you will. How can we help without causing more strain on you? Can, and will, be there in a matter of hours. Say the word and I am on the road.
ReplyDeleteContinued prayers for healing. I think of you both often! Jennifer
