For about a week now, Ricky's dizziness has been far more severe (along with periodic fever and chills). He's been sleeping a lot more (like 8+ hours in the middle of the day one day last week!). He's had headaches and stomach aches, and just hasn't been feeling well.
The CF doc prescribed Septra, which I couldn't understand. This was clearly a virus as far as I could tell and the CF nurse could tell.
Well, then, today, Ricky slept all day yet again (he has had at least 4 hours of nap(s) every day since this started) and this evening, even after his breathing treatments, his chest was tight. He said that last night he'd had trouble getting to sleep because his breathing was bad.
Tomorrow he has an appointment with the neurologist and an appointment for his yearly bone density scan. Those are both up at Stanford and I'm going to try to get us there early so we can maybe see someone in the CF clinic. I do not like how quickly this has gone downhill!
