Not sure just what is going on. BP is ok & no fever. He has been running to potty more than usual. It could be the new meds for the blood they sent him home with. I wanted to call & talk to a nurse to see what they think. But, he is having none of that! But, his belly hurts & he has some shaking. I know he feels bad & keeps moaning. He says to just wait & it will get better. Really!! I think he is afraid they will take him back to the hospital. I have to call several Dr.'s & make appts for follow-ups Monday. Home health care will be coming out several times a week for therapy. He is not liking that either. I think I could use a nerve pill & a Strong Coffee!! Lord, Please give me the strength to help him!
