Back to the Emergency Room

We spent last night in the emergency room until 1:30 this morning.  We went home and I got a few hours sleep before going to work.  Reluctantly, I left him home alone.  Mid morning he called me and thing have gotten worse.  He was taken by ambulance back to Mercy Gilbert Hospital.  He is currently in the emergency room.  He is very very swollen in his body.  His blood count has changed since last night.  All he knows so far is that they are thinking that the steroids are causing his body further problems. A Ct scan will be done this afternoon.  He still needs dialysis today.   He will probably be admitted to run further tests.  Jeff needed the high doses of steroids to stop the hemoraging in his lungs.  The question is yet to be answered as to what will happen when they decrease the steroids.
