Clinic Visit Number 4

This update is directly from Jane. She sent this text message to friends today telling of her 4th Clinic
 visit today.

This is selfie of us taking a walk this afternoon

Doctor visit went ok. Infectious disease doctor was thrilled at my progress. ...he was there from beginning to see how bad I was. His smile was incredible.  We arrived for my Doppler vascular exam 15 minutes late at 1:15 & they cancelled me!  I had a 2 hour appointment! They said they took the next patient & did not know if they would get to me if we waited.  We found this difficult to believe that next patient 2 hours later was already there. I  pleaded with them...no sympathy!  I have to reschedule.  Wanted to know status on no blood clots.  They called tonight & adjusted my medications.  I am to stop taking daily water pill due to it affecting my kidneys per blood work today.  Will reassess in 2 weeks.  Hopefully my swollen ankles will not bloat up again. Two other  antibiotics were reduced to 1 per day. My antibody levels are good....my body is not rejecting these miracle lungs! PTL! A more detailed antibody level result will take another week. What a blessing!

 

Lung doctor was thrilled with my progress. Labs took 8 vials of blood. Pharmacy reviewed my medications.  The interviewer for government agency certification process for NW  was there.  They interviewed me and Jude about my experience with the lung team. Have a blessed day!  Love Jane and Jude

Next update will be two weeks from today on our 5th clinic visit.

 

OK had to post this picture of Lamborghini I saw outside the Northwestern Hospital when we were leaving!
