Saturday night

A very rough 24 hours as there seemed to be no way to get ahead of her pain. They tried some new pain meds yesterday and this morning, but nothing seemed to work.

Finally about 5pm tonight a combination of morphine, ativan and benadryl got her to a restful sleep.

The good news is that the MRI showed no new growths and no edema and the xray of her abdomen (where all the pain is) showed nothing alarming. This leaves the doctors stumped as to the cause of all the pain.

All we can do is treat the pain one day at a time and hope we find some combination to get her a more permanent relief.

Thanks

    I am so sorry Tia, you are carrying so much right now. I am praying that you can stay strong, and that the relief you got from the pain meds gives you a chance to sleep and relax. I wish I could carry some of this for you.
    Love you tootsie.....
