Numbers are down which is good. Still have a ways to go before they are low enough to let me leave town, but I'll take what I can get. Fever has been gone since tuesday evening, with no source found. The angioplasty ballooning did some good; how much of a problem there actually was remains unclear. The drain is out and that swamp at least is clean and dry. Meg and I managed to convinced the team that I should be discharged and I will leave the hospital late this afternoon.
What we have is a very murky picture. Numbers have to come further down, close to normal. Hep-C needs to be treated at some point, not clear how urgently. Need to go back on rat poison for some more months to treat the clot. Need pentamidine treatment when the drug comes in. Will need to continue the wound care with honey dressing for "a long time" (month?). Will have blood checked both days this weekend and then tuesday and thursday. We will visit the clinic on thursday when we will re-assess the big picture.
David is coming today to stay for about five days. Meg's cousins Janet and Bill are coming to visit for the weekend. The forecast is for warm weather. So Meg and should get a chance to relax and recoup emotionally.
