Joe had his ultrasound on his belly at 8am this morning at Duke Hospital. Results, sure enough, fluid build up in his belly. They withdrew 10 pounds, yep, 10 POUNDS of fluid from his belly. Actually 4 liters of fluid! That should hopefully make him feel much, much better and help to make his pants fit again! I am so relieved. They said this is common and could happen again. Just keep a watch and if we notice a change (which I noticed 2 months ago yet no one would believe me) to go back and they can do it again. Joe said it didn't really hurt so I am grateful for that.
This makes me feel a little better today.
