Mike was admitted to the hospital last night. He had been having more pains since the pain block so he called and talked to his nurse. She talked the oncologist and she wanted Mike to come to the ER in Indy. Once we got here last night, they took Mike in for another CT Scan. There was a couple of different issues going on and it seems like each dr has a different opinion on what they are. Ugh!
The one thing for sure was that Mike was having the fluid building up. They took him in to the ultrasound dept to drain the fluid then send it off to the lab for testing. They are seeing if it is an infection or from the tumor. I am praying it is infection because I do not want to go there with the cancer.
All 3 drs (ER, Oncologist, GI) all agree there is something going on with the stomach. ER and Oncologist are thinking there might be a blockage. The ER dr said that going by the report from the scan, the tumor has a +/- on the size, Oncologist says smaller. The GI dr is saying that it looks like the tumor is wrapped around the bowel. Those are big differences! So the GI is consulting with the Sr GI, who happened to do Mike's biopsy, and they will look over the scan and come back to talk to us. Whatever they decide at this point will be taken care of tomorrow, I'm sure. It is later in the afternoon and I cannot imagine they will do too much more today.
I hate all this waiting. I wish they would just do test after test and get it out of the way. I plan on going hom tonight, since I stayed here with Mike last night. I want the kids to be in their beds and I need to clean up a little. Once I get Erin to school then I will head back over. I have already called my daycare families to let them know what is going on and they are all very concerned.
