2nd radioembolization done!
Craig just got back after a 4 hour procedure placing more radioactive beads in the left side of his liver. This is the 2nd of 3 planned procedures. He always comes back in pain because he has to lay straight on his back for 4 hours after the procedure. They gave him dilaudid and it makes everything feel much better! He's snoozing now. It's a little lonelier here this time without my awesome kids. His blood sugar did drop twice today below 60 so he's had 2 infusions of extra D50 to keep it up. He hasn't had any food either but they did increase his regular glucose drip to 100 mls per hour from 70. His body doesn't know what it's doing. Today he'll just be sleeping and staying out of pain. I think he'll be here at least a few days.

Suzie, Thank you for the updates, they are great. It was good to see everyone when I was in town. Meeting your neighbors was great and seeing Jason and Sherry was wonderful too.
ReplyDeleteThank you for being so dedicated and helping Craig through this. Let's hope this set of beads targets the tumor that is producing all the extra insulin; that would be great.
With Love,
Ryan
