Day 25. Another early morning walk with Elle, followed by breakfast and a bike ride. Then Elle had a bath as conditions are perfect for dog bathing. Also cooled her down as it was 34 here today. Had a swim and did some computer work and reading. Feel like I am at a resort! With my dog!
Meanwhile, RM spent another day in Darwin Hospital. They tested his eyes and all clear there. Finally, they took a biopsy of the artery they think is the problem. RM says he looks like someone decked him above his right eye. This is the test which will confirm the diagnosis of Temporal arteritis. The main treatment is to take corticosteroids for some period of time. Full recovery is usual. Let's hope this is the solution. If not, surgery to relieve the inflammation may be warranted. RM is feeling much better already, since starting the corticosteroids. Hooray! I do miss him as much as Elle does.
