SCT 2 day 11

Less than one minute read time.
Surgeon came yesterday afternoon and mri was done at 5 pm. Pete was feeling a little brighter and wasn't in as much pain. His neutrophils had risen to 0.4 the same as on day 10 with his first transplant. Dr came today and told us mri was ok and just showed a lot of swelling. His neutrophils had risen to 1.5 but due to infections he needed to stay in hospital another few days. He has 1 infection in his line and another in his urine which is hard to fight so iv antibiotics have to be administered. These in turn have effected his kidneys so he needs to be on iv fluids for 24hrs. On the bright side though he is now allowed out of his room, so rain or not he put on his coat and mask and was out the door for a little walk. He's now sleeping as the effort wiped him out
