Toxic
I had phoned home yesterday to see how Scott. When he told me he was a little better I thought I would quick update the blog ("Making Progress")Any small change is progress. When I got home Scott could barely function. I urged him to call Dr. Nick to see if we should have seen a difference by now. It turns out we should. So Dr. Nick again reviewed the scans looking for a stroke, bleeding or change in the tumor. Confused they looked at Scott's bloodwork that was taken on Friday. Conclusion is his Dilantin level is high, making him toxic. He is to decrease his Dilantin by one, reduce his Topomax and have his blood drawn on Friday. We will re-evaluate and go from there. Scott is so frustrated. We just have to wait for his levels to decrease from 20 to 13-14.
