My husband didn't have the confusion, but I've talked to many caregivers whose patient did. I think it's pretty common. As far as swelling, the PT gave my husband compression socks they usually use for burn victims. It worked great. After a few days, she'd get him a smaller pair and repeated until his legs were back to normal. Joe had at least three RBC transfusions after transplant. WBC were all over the place. Seem to be a little more consistent now on day 75.
