After I wrote the blog last night Jess started itching and before we knew it she was full of hives! I gave her two Benadryl and called the on call doctor who then asked if we had any steroids (which we did thankfully), then he told us to give her 40 mg. Jon rubbed Caladryl on it to help and she started to feel better. She slept pretty well for the night, but when I went in and checked on her later in the morning she had a nice size bruise on her back from the jackass doctor but at least it is only tender now. The doctor office from Medford kept calling because they wanted us to come back over there today for her to get a checkup today. Yeah right; we were not going back over there after what happened yesterday and with all the snow we had too. She stayed home and slept all day and didn't eat very much. She worries me. About an hour ago she had another hive attack...so what is causing this now? We will keep an eye on her and she might just end up in the ER. She just isn't feeling 100%. She is also really cold, hmm. Well, I will get off for now. I will let you know how she is tomorrow. Please keep her in your prayers.
Love to call,
Cindi
I hope that Jess is feeling better today, boy she sure has been through it. What happened in Medford was inexcusable. They should have passionate doctors working with patients who are going through this. I pray that this next year will be so much better for her than what the end of this year has been. Thanks for the updates, we are all praying for Jess.

Hi Cindi,
ReplyDeleteWow! I hope you find out what's causing all of this. We're praying that the doctors have the wisdom and much needed expertise to treat Jess so that whatever it is causing all this can be cured. We are praying for you and keeping you in our thoughts. Please drive carefully and know you are all loved and cared for. Hang in there, Cindi and Jess! Keep fighting!
Love, prayers, and tons of hugs,
Kimberley, Richard, and Morgan
Oh man! If I were you guys I would seriously consider going back to OHSU. I know it is a pain, but she was taken care of so much better up there. My sister-in-law said when her husband had cancer, OHSU was the place to be. I will be praying a big prayer for you guys tonight! Love you all and try to have a good New Years!
