Thursday, October 1
Today was better. I was able to get some answers and direction. Chuck's procedure went well, they have hooked back up to the PCA pump for pain meds and 24/7 TPN nutrient line. The objective is to keep him comfortable and his pain managable.
WE have an appointment with a pain management specialist tomorrow. They are thinking that some of the pain is "nerve" pain and they can block it. Where were they 3 months, ago? But better late than never and hopefully someone will make a note to consult "pain management" when a patient needs the kidney lines. This is a learning hospital......
We will be staying here for the weekend then early next week arrange for some home care. We are going home. We will still need to visit here at least once a week but he can get labs and blood products back in Myrtle Beach.
This is a good thing and we feel the right decision for all of us.....
Thanks for checking on us...

I hope the pain meds can keep Chuck as comfortable as possible. My heart goes out to your entire family. I hope Chuck heals soon and can be off the medication for good.
