Morgan went in to Children's this morning. She had her blood drawn and waited for the results.
She was still feeling under the weather but her temperature was okay. She has been complaining of shortness of breath lately, so the doctor decided to send her for a chest x-ray as a precautionary measure. When she returned from getting the x-ray, it was decided that she should get some IV fluids just to hydrate her. She was able to return home after that.
Morgan was feeling a bit better after the IV fluids and rested for the remainder of the day.
Morgan has felt pretty sick all day today. She was feeling nauseous and was having jaw pain along with a sore throat for the most part of the day. She has not developed a fever yet, which is good.

Today Morgan woke up still feeling fairly sick and dizzy. She went in to Children's for her scheduled appointment and had her blood drawn then waited to meet with the doctor. After meeting with the doctor, it was decided to give Morgan some IV fluids to help hydrate her and she was given the next level up anti nausea medication through her IV. She is up to 4 anti nausea medications now at home and even they were not cutting it for her.
The IV fluid and additional anti nausea medication seemed to do the trick. She felt much better by the time she left the hospital.
While meeting with the doctor, we were given the news that her MRI and CT scans were all clear! This was fabulous news and a big sigh of relief. We will have her final post chemo scans to check for any residual cancer in late January.

Today Morgan had her MRI and CT scans. At this point they are just checking to make sure no new cancer tumors have popped up. Our doctor is confident that the scans will be clear. She said we will not hear any news about the scans unless something shows up. So no news is good news.
We do have a doctor's appointment tomorrow and we will enquire about the scans just to set our minds at ease.
While at the hospital they did some bloodwork in the clinic as Morgan has still been feeling miserable. She is feeling nauseous, dizzy and weak. The bloodwork came back okay and she did not need a blood transfusion. They have her some IV fluids and sent us home.

Morgan was discharged from the hospital at around 10am this morning. She was feeling well.
This afternoon she took a turn for the worse. She was feeling extremely dizzy and nauseous. Usually when we come home from chemo she is unwell, but this was a lot worse. She continued to feel horrible all afternoon and then finally we decided to call the oncologist on call.
The Dr. told us to hydrate and bump up her anti nausea medications by 3 hours and to call back in 30 minutes if she was still unwell. An hour passed and she was still feeling horrible. So, we called the doctor back and we were advised to bring her back in to the hospital.
We started to prepare the hospital bag and we were getting ready to take her. We got Morgan out of bed and up and moving. As we were about to head out the door, she said she was feeling a tiny bit better. We made the decision to stay home and see how she felt over the next hour to see if the meds would kick in.
They did. She felt much better as the evening progressed and went to bed early.
Tomorrow we are back at the hospital for her scheduled CT and MRI scans.
