Today was not much better...
They had us all over the hospital. He saw the doctor, had a CT scan then saw the neurosurgeon. The CT scan was pretty much normal but the ventricles were slightly larger then the last. Dr. Reisner reprogrammed his shunt to drain a little faster. We hope this takes care of the problem but Nolan was still in a lot of pain this afternoon. He's basically been glued to the couch or the bed :-( Everything else looks wonderful! His blood counts are perfect! We just can't figure out whats causing all the pain? We discussed whether to admit him but really there isn't much they would do except observe him and Nolan wants to be home. So we have started a headache diary. Maybe we can figure out a pattern and be able to solve the problem.

The doctor decided to hold his IV chemo until he's looking and feeling better. He will go back Friday for a check up and maybe to resume chemo.
Thank you for continuing to pray for Nolan!
