Well, yesterday mom went to have a check up in Scarborough. Her counts were down so they shipped her to Maine Medical to Gibson in order to get products, platelets etc. She did really well receiving the products and then was sent home. Once she arrived home she laid down and took a nap. When she woke up she had a temperature. Dad called the doc and they said to take tylenol and check her temp every 4 hours. Well, her temperature kept climbing to 105. they called the doc again and dad took mom into Maine Medical Center Emergency Room around midnight. She was still able to talk. They put her in a triage room in order to get her away from the other patients because she is neutropenic. She eventually moved up to gibson.
Her temperature has broken but they are monitoring her. they are taking blood cultures to see if she has an infection some place. They think it may be related to the chemo but are unsure.
I am unable to tell you how long she will be at gibson, but i will update as soon as i learn any new information.
until i know more...
