Spent the day at Piedmont Hospital - today was supposed to be a 'lab' only day with a clinic appointment (see the doctor) this Thursday, but since Ron's having so many problems - the team saw him today.
This is a list of his symptoms:
Huge swollen feet and legs
Tremors
Unable to sleep (slept 30 minutes last night)
Incision pain and unable to take any of the pain meds they've given him so far - trying a new scrip tonight
Still loopy - today he told me the lights on the cable box are larger - said DISH made the lights bigger for senior citizens, at the hospital today - he told me he was thinking today that he lived with his Aunt Virginia in College Park
Mood swings, grumpy
We were told all the problems he's having are due to medication.....the clinic called late this afternoon and they want to lower the dosage of one of his anti-rejection drugs.
Tomorrow I'm going to leave the day and the schedule up to him - I'm going to see how he does on his own - if he remembers his medication/his morning routine: weight, blood pressure, temperature, ck blood sugar, insulin - make his own breakfast - I'll step back and see how he does.
Hopefully he'll sleep better tonight.
I hope he sleeps well too. A good nights rest can do wonders. Keeping you both in prayer. Speedy and complete recovery.
