Christie is about 1/2 through with her radiation treatment, but yesterday she began to have worsening chest pain. So today I went to her radiation treatment with her, and they decided to admit her to the Emergency Room to run tests. It looks like she has inflamed lining around the lungs and heart (pluritis & periocarditis sp?).
It's painful, but as long as it doesn't get too irritated she'll be fine.
Right now I'm in the ER with her waiting for them to run a final test. The doc just told us that one of her blood markers is a little high, so they want to do a CT scan now. So, it's 5:30 PM now, and she still hasn't eaten since breakfast. And there's no sign that she'll get her CT any time soon =( So, we're standing by to stand by to stand by to stand by to ...
