Not much to say. Doctor said everything is looking good. Eddie has a little too much fluid built-up where they took out the lymph nodes. He has to go back on Thursday it see if it builds up again. If it has built-up the doctor is recommending putting the drain back in. Eddie told him he doesn't mind driving up to Mayo every couple of days to have it drained. He really doesn't want it put back in. I can't say I blame him at all.
He starts physical therapy on Monday for neck and shoulder mobility.
No word on radiation yet. Insurance has to approve just to get a consultation. If I was listening to the doctor correctly it's a 50/50. My fingers are crossed that he doesn't have to have it. The doctor did mention a clinical trial for radiation that only lasts for 2 weeks. So, we'll just have to wait and see.
