I can't believe it's been 8 weeks since the surgery. Adam was back in the hosiptal last week with an absess. He finally called his GI about the pain he was experiencing. She told him to come in for some blood work and to get a CT. CT showed an absess so Dr. P admitted him. They were planning on placing a drain the next day. When they finally came down to get us and the Dr. was explaining the drain placement, risks, complications, etc., we decided we wanted to just try an antibiotic first to see if it would take care of it. The absess was about the size of a grape, and we were told it was in a hard spot to get to around lots of nerves and arteries, and that they weren't even certain it was large enough to get a drain in.
Well...Adam's feeling great! He's feeling better than he has in a long long time. Still gets worn out easily, but feels good! Such a relief. His pain is completely gone. We go in next week for a repeat scan to see if it's cleared up.
Blood work showed he's very anemic!
Last night on the scale the results were a 5 lb gain so far! Hooray!!!
