12/27, 2200 But Wait, There's More!

Doctor Friedman just stopped in after working all day in Uvalde, 60 or so miles away. The guy rocks! Cheryl was very happy to see him stop in this late.

I spoke with him after he was done checking her over.

Liver and Kidney function are good. He saw the Calcium count was low and its already on the IV, ten minutes later. He is stopping the Bactrim, the antibiotic she's lived on all year and is still taking as a MRSA precaution. There's some suspicion that this may be a contributor to this problem. Just in case of infection, he has already written orders to speed treatment should any bacterial infection show up. And, he stopped the nutriphos? oral solution as it burns her mouth badly when she drinks it. She is very happy to have that stopped for now.

He feels Cheryl has started turning the corner from the danger of the drug reaction.


All news we are grateful to hear today!
