Jeff Young's Fight Against Colon Cancer

Results

Jeff's urine sample showed that he has a urinary tract infection. He was started on an oral antibiotic last nite and will continue for 14 days. I don't know the results of Jeff's blood results, but we should find out this afternoon when we see hospice nurse. They are just checking to see how thin his blood is. They think that the blood in the urine might be coming from the UT infection.
Jeff was given the okay to take ibuprofen, but at a lower dose. He is not taking blood thinning medication at this time. His pain seems to be doing much better since he is able to take the ibuprofen today. I am calling the trial people again today, so hopefully I will hear something. Hope everyone is well and take care.
