Dad had his second go around of Pheresis (Stem Cell Collection) today. The Pheresis and shots have been pretty rough on him. He has been in a lot of pain, unfortunately the pain pills are little comfort. He has also suffered dizzy spells and many other symptoms from them as well.
We are waiting to find out if he will need another go around, praying he is finished. If they have collected enough stem cells as of today we can pack and head home tomorrow morning. If they haven't reached the goal set for collection he will have to endure another 5-6 hours of Pheresis.
I will post more when we have the updates available.
Welcome to Dad'z Update Page - this blog is a way to update information on Dad's condition, treatment, etc... so that everyone will be informed of his progress.
