The last 2 days of ATG were nowhere near as bad as the first day. He got a temperature but not like the first day, and he still has a rash.
The steroids are making him puff up, but that should go when he comes off them.
He spends most of the day sleeping. This morning he read for close to an hour then had a sleep. This afternoon he managed to watch most of the Magpies game then he was back to sleep.
He's getting used to having his blood pressure and pulse taken in his sleep, the arm automatically comes out without realising it, this happens all day and all night.
This morning he had to have another platelet transfusion, and tonight he is having a red cell transfusion.
Friday he started on 2 drugs to prevent Graft vs Host Disease. This is where Logans immune system recognises the new cells as foreign and attacks them, and vice versa.
Tomorrow is Day 0 Transplant Day.
