I'm tired of counting!
Traffic was a bear today!
Liver Transplant Team @ rounds today: new anti-rejection medication, Rappamune; psychiatric report, anxiety and depression (may receive additional medication); nutrition, better menu.
Thoracic Surgeon visited today: Ron has a small lump in the lower part of his left lung, the doctor wants to talk with the liver transplant team to see if it's okay to go ahead and do a full upper chest CT with contrast; once that's done - the doctor said the LUMP IS NOT in a place where they can get to it via bronchoscopy (instrument inserted into the airways). The next option would be needle aspiration (that's what we're hoping for).......the final option would be to go in surgically, cut out and resection the lung......Ron is not physically ready for that.
I'll update later as soon as I know something.
