Good evening everyone. Sorry I am so late in posting today, but it has been really busy all day long.
Mamma did very well yesterday and last night. Her temp did spike to 102 and they took some blood cultures in hopes of getting more answers as to what is still causing this problem. Around 6 am the nurses came in and said that mammas blood work was not very good. So, they pulled a few tubes to do a few extra tests with. Turns out that her red blood and platelet counts had dropped to very low, her potassium and magnesium had also dropped So they gave 1 unit of blood to see if we can bring it back up. Also her potassium and her magnesium is still low so they are doing extra of each of those.
Today hasn’t been an easy day because she has been very weak and tired, but except for that one time her temp has stayed to the low side of 100 and a few times today it has even hit 98.4 for a little while. She has struggled with pretty low Blood pressure all day, so we are hoping to see it come back up soon.
