We have had some wonderfully scary nights here lately. I had a huge fever spike to 102.9 and I kind of freaked out a little. I absolutely did not want to go through the Emergency "Center" as they like to call it, experience once again.

One of my super duper best friends has a brother in law that is a wonderful oncologist up at the Mayo Clinic and he specializes in colon cancer and I believe he sees a few cholangio patients these days. Anyway, Sara got me in touch with him and he called me himself around 8 in the evening from Rochester to help me out. I don't know if there are enough "thank you's" out there to express how much he helped me. I felt so guilty for bothering him during his down time with his family, but he was more than happy to help me out. He changed up some meds I was taking and gave me a couple of new ones and within a couple of hours, I was back on track. That night was horrible, but would have been 5 times as bad if I was on a stretcher in an ER hallway! The phone call and the med change happened Sunday night and I didn't get out of bed all day or night the following Monday. Today, I felt much better, I have been able to let up on the pain meds and the spike fevers have stayed under control. I actually woke up and moved around about noon and I ate a couple of bites of food! I had to take a 2 hour nap a while ago, but I am still doing okay. Axel, my Angel Doctor told me to expect the severe flu like symptoms for a couple of days. I do feel like I am on course. I am still very groggy, but sleep is good, nobody gets enough, right?
