Lot's of Tests Today Day 92

Some good news, the blood clots in Matt's right arm are gone. YEA! That means no infection there. Today is day 1 of no more Temp's, we need to have no Temp's for 48 hours before they will consider letting us go. Matt is scheduled for his EGD stomach scope and biopsy today at 12:45. If he dose have GVHD there that will be most likely why he has had the Temp's. We spoke with the Orthopedic Surgeon last night and he wants to put Matt into a back brace for now to keep him still so they can get more xrays to see the extent of his T7-T8 compression fractures in his spine. Matt will also undergo a Bone Dencity test today to see how much the prednisone has effected that. Matt is still on the Prednisone taper, we want him off it as soon as possible. Because that drug is one of the Medicines that fight GVHD they might have to put him on something else if the EGD comes back positive. Hope you all stay COOL today, we are glad to be in an air conditioned room for now. We will update when we here something. Keep those positive thoughts coming. Lynn & Matt
