Still no real change today. He's had two blood transfusions and getting fluids. Today's labs revealed Joe is anemic. Appetite still not good but is eating a little at each mealtime. Right now he has developed a persistent cough which is rough for him trying to sleep. They gave him pills last night and today for it, but he has had his daily quota of that so they gave him some robitussin type stuff tonight but it isn't working.
The CT scan of his head showed no abnormalities (only thing there was a brain). He also had an ultrasound of his right calf to make sure there were no signs of a blood clot. His calf has been aching and it was a little swollen during the late morning so they checked to just be sure. There were no signs of a clot forming.
Unless he can stop coughing, he won't be sleeping tonight.
Unless he can stop coughing, I won't be sleeping tonight.
