Recovering from Embolization
Wow, how can six plastic beads hurt so much? Actually the doctors said the embolization went very well. He was able to place them throughout the liver so several of the tumors can be effected at once. I had it done Thursday, left the hospital Friday but immediately developed a fever. Kevin took me back to the doctor yesterday to get I.V. fluids and antibiotics and they took cultures to see if there is another way to knock out the infection. I feel stronger every day but I can tell this one will be a slow process. I still have plans to go back to work tomorrow because laying around certainly isn't making me stronger. No chemo this week thank goodness, the doctor wants to wait a week or two. I don't have anything else planned for awhile so maybe this will do the trick for a while. Thanks again for the prayers, flowers, food,calls, cards etc. etc.
