Back to square one!

After 6 Thymogobulin treatments, we are back to square one. He is not responding to treatments. They readmitted him on Monday, May 11. Another biopsy was had yesterday and we are awaiting the results.

After some blood cultures, an infection was found in his port line. So, they removed the port line and have been dispuring large amounts of IV antibiotics to clear up the infection.

Where o' where do we go from here???

I just pray that they are able to reverse the rejection.

Tiffany,
I'm so sorry to hear about all of this. I hope they can reverse it, too.

Thinking of you both,
Dawn

Adventures in Big Bird's Liver World is an account of the daily adventures, trials, frustrations and workings of living with PSC. My brother, aka Big Bird, was diagnosed with PSC in 2000, after battleing UC for many years. He was listed for a transplant in May 2007. We now await the infamous "call". In the mean time, this is where we vent, poise questions and ramble about life, doctor appointments, illness, good days & bad days.
