Scott Wednesday Evening

Scott is finally fully aware of what is going on and doing a bit better. We had another major scare yesterday, but the muscle enzyme numbers finally started dropping. Thankfully, they got control of it before there was another seizure, a stroke, or organ damage to his liver, kidneys, and other things. It could have been really bad.

But, they got it stopped and his numbers this afternoon had dropped by more than half. Everything else they are watching regarding his liver, his kidney function, etc all test really well. They just have to get him down lower on the muscle enzymes deal so they can release him to go home.

We still do  not what caused any of this. He is looking at being on anti seizure drugs for quite awhile, possibly anti blood clotting drugs to prevent a stroke, probable medication changes to his normal pill regimen, and a lot of doctor visits to do testing and followups. 

The folks treating him know that if I had my way I would be camped there day and night. I can't do that. They know I am upset about everything going on and have assured me that it now appears we are through the worst of things and it should be much better going forward. 

I truly hope so. But, the cynical paranoid in me, honed by 58 years of being slapped down, is not believing them yet.
