Still having Fevers

3-19-12.....Heaven is still having fevers. At 4:30 a.m. this morning her temp was 103.9,,,the nurses even brought in a fan to help her feel more comfortable. She was given tylenol so her latest check for her temp was 99.2 She didn't rest as well last night for some reason. She actually seems to be resting much better right now. Dr. Edwards or Atkinson will be in here in jsut a little bit so I will see what he says about things. Again thank you all for your prayers <3 and to God be all the glory. Will update as the day progresses.

Dr. Randy (PICU Dr.) just came in and listened to Heavens lungs and he said that they sounded really good. Then he explained that the reason she had the fluidis because of all the fluids she needed when her blood pressure was low the other day. Theya re now goignt o start decreasing the flow of oxygen to see if she will continue to get better. They jsut now need to figure out the fevers. Dr. Edwards hasn't shown up yet so, we are waiting to see what he says.
♥ to all and to God be the glory.

O.k. at about 1:00 p.m. Heaven had a Potassium bolis due to the fact that her Potassium level is really low, she just finished up a Platelet Transfusion about 20 minutes and now she is getting the Ambison (anti-fungal). She isn't feeling to good sue to some drainage in her throat from where her nose has previously bled. Her last temp was 102.6 and now it is 101. Dr. Edwards came in and listened to her lungs and he agreed that they are sound so much better, but he wants to keep her on the oxygen for now instead of taking her off cold turkey they will be weaning her slowly. But for now she is on full oxygen cause as soon as they decreased it, she eventually started to have to work harder to breath which cause lots of coughing. <3

Heavens Potassium level is 3.3 the Dr. is pushing for 3.5+.(normal range is 3.5 to 4.5) so higher than 3.5 is better for her. She will be getting a potassium bolis soon. Her temp right now is 103.1 so we are back to the tylenol and the fan. They lowered or oxygen again to see how she does. each time she sits up or tries to talk all she does is cough and it makes her throat so sore. Poor baby. ♥ you all
