Cancelled Chemo
6/28/2010Kurt's white blood cell count too low today to get chemo. He had a really rough weekend and I think we have figured out why. He was done with his antibiotics on Thursday and on Friday the dr. said the thrush was gone. It wasn't. He told me last night it felt like it was burning. Up until that point he had just said it hurt. They confirmed it was thrush and wrote him another prescription and he also has another mouthwash to help. He did have radiation and he only has three more treatments. He will try again for chemo on Thursday. Dr. seemed pretty sure his counts would be back up by then. So he will have to do I.V. fluids in Coshocton this weekend and Zanesville on Monday. She also said they will do a weekly check of his counts over the next 3 weeks. Weight check: He has lost another 11 pounds in the last two weeks. He has lost around 30-35 pounds total.
