Andrew's last two treatments have taken longer, and he has lots of the medication pooling under his skin in all three sites. It took over three hours last night, and it was very slow going. He clamped off one, and it made the other two worse. He has started eating healthier - even though he was already a healthy eater. I am a little concerned that he is even leaner than before. Because of his fat loss many years ago, he does not have what most of us have. Even what very lean people have. His excess is gone.
I just pray that this will resolve itself so we can continue the SubQ treatments. I will make some calls yesterday. He also had a lot of bleeding after removing the needles from the two abdominal sites. We have had a little before but not anything like last night. It quit pretty quickly with pressure from a cold washcloth, but it was a little odd that both bled. His leg was harder to start, but it probably did better. So we may have to find new sites.
Thanks for the prayers. He is sleeping better with his better diet. We still have not gotten his iron as the pharmacy was having trouble receiving faxes. So I will do that tomorrow too - even if I get a temporary kind.
Have a great week!
