Tracey is not progressing as well as i had expected. She does sound better. her speech is about 80%. the steroids don't seem to be helping with then nausea or the brain swelling yet. they are giving the dexamethasine (4 mg) iv drip and not iv push like last time. I don't know if it makes a difference or not... Tracey is complaining of a Regurgitation issue where she is constantly belching and she cant eat, take pill, or drink. That is why they are giving her the Pepcid but I don't know if that will help. Tracey's right side is still really week and she has very little ability to use her right arm and hand. It makes her very upset every time she tries to use it.

She will be going down to radiation this afternoon. She is upset that she will not be able to walk to the table as she has for the past 5 sessions.
