Tues. Oct 20th - We gave him 1000 mL of fluids, ½ a Mirtazapine, 3 Sucralfate, & 20mg Prednisone. We are keeping an eye on his 'pollutants' and have not seen any issues. The melena occurred on the first Wed after we'd started him on the chemo, so tomorrow will be the same # of days for this cycle. It will be very telling if the lower chemo dose & the Sucralfate will prevent this from happening again. Our Rx for the Sucralfate is running low so we plan to see if Ruslander recommends continuing this as a preventative measure. Sam had a good amount of energy at lunch & after work.
He and Mushka enjoyed some frisbee time at lunch.
