Ken had a small sausage biscuit and cup of coffee on the way in, so they have postponed the biopsy until 2 this afternoon. Ken's LFTs are down from last Wednesday's blood work, so I assume the double dose of Neoral is helping.....but his bilirubin jumped up from 5.4 to 9.1, so he looks pretty darn yellow. His Albumin is back down to 2.8 (not good), but his INR is 1.6 so at least they will be able to do the biopsy. The nurse 'thinks' they may go ahead and start the rejection therapy without the biopsy results, but we're not sure. I hope so, the quicker they jump on the band wagon, the better.

Ken's sleeping now, getting up at 4:30 tires a guy (and his mom) out. That's all for now, I'll write if we learn anything new. Barb
