Nancy : I have to echo what has been said by those before me - you are such a big help and inspiration to those of us on the board. Thanks for all you do.
Peace to both of you...

Procedure had to be postponed, INR is too high, plus he's got some lung congestion. He's still in the hospital.

I hope all goes well. My Mother-in-law is scheduled for a lung biopsy next month. We wish it could have been sooner, but with her scheduled trip to visit a son in Wisconsin and the docotr's vacation plans, the earliest they could set it for was Sept. 20th.
You are both in my thoughts

Hi Nancy, sorry to read your post that Joe's procedure had to be postponed....waiting is the pits. What are they doing about the INR? Just letting it come down on it's own (with bridging) and antibiotics for the congestion?
I am assuming he is in one of the 3 major hospitals in Albany/Schenectady and thus getting excellent care....especially with you as his omsbudsperson!
I am hoping for the best for both of you.

He's on a Heparin drip, since he cannot take Lovenox. Yes, he's in local hospital, thank God.
They are working on getting rid of extra fluid in the mean time. This time they have given him injected Albumin to augment the IV Lasix. Never had that one before. Apparently it helps folks who have become resistant to diuresis. The nurse said it aids by pulling fluid from the tissues into the circulatory system, to be excreted.

Doc today said the bronchoscopy definitely has to be done, probably on Monday. He had a chest xray today after they got rid of a lot of fluid and there is still stuff at the base of the lung/s that needs further investigation.
