Back in the hospital

Today Terry was readmitted to the hospital so that a few more tests can be run to determine why her liver enzymes are still elevated. There are 3 possibilities: the medications she is taking may be the cause; this may be a sign of graft vs. host disease; or it could be from the myelofibrosis. Tomorrow they are doing a bone marrow biopsy and possibly a liver biopsy- they may have to do this the following day depending on scheduling. There is plan for each complication- if it is the medication they will change to an IV form infused at the clinic twice a week. If it is graft vs. host they will begin to treat that and if it is the myelofibrosis they will give a mild course of chemo on an outpatient basis which the doctor was considering doing anyway. We will keep you posted when we know more. Thanks again for everyone's thought and prayers.
