No chemo

At the appointment yesterday the doctor would not let mom have chemo. This was kinda frustration but ok. What the radiologist thought was an abscess on the last scan turned out to be an abscess. Dr Anthony did not want mom to get chemo due to the abscess along with her white blood cells were really high   Go back in 2 week for a follow up scan and appt with Dr Anthony along with seeing Dr Beck (rectal surgeon).  At this time they will evaluate how effective the antibiotics they put her on is working or will they need to surgically go in a drain the abscess.  If they are pleased with the scan she will have chemo that day.
