Dr. Meade dropped by late this afternoon to give us an update on the liver biopsy. No surprises good or bad. They confirmed she had GvH in the liver (we knew that), they also said she had a high amount of iron in the liver -- that too is pretty normal for someone receiving transfusions. After Trish's first round of chemo, Drs. Fu and Griffiths considered putting her on a chelation agent to get rid of the extra iron, but her body started getting rid of it fast enough. This time she will likely need it, but not till he dust settles.
She had a nausea filled day, tried to eat, but didn't keep much down. She is really getting bummed. She justs wants to get home. She should eat better if she gets out, but they won't let her out till she eats well. It's a Catch 22. She is starting to worry. It's way too early too worry yet. Pray, call, write.
Thank you.
