The bad news is Jon had another reaction to his chemo. Similar to last time with fever and chills but much more controlled with the supervision of the doctors and nurses at SCTWC. I am monitoring his temperature tonight which has returned to normal. They are never sure if it is an allergic reaction or an infection so as a precaution they gave him an IV antibiotic and a prescription of levoquin. He is doing well and just a little loopy from the drugs. If anything happens tonight I will take him to Auburn General Hopsital, otherwise we will check in with SCTWC in the morning.
The good news is Dr. Chue agreed to ending his intravenous chemo today and has ordered the PET scan. We are to call the hospital to schedule it tomorrow (I'm hoping for a Thursday appointment) and we will see Dr. Chue next Tuesday for the results. We are all feeling extremely optimistic about the PET scan results. I should have some definite news by early next week.
Keep all those prayers and positive thoughts coming!
