Maddy started feeling pretty bad yesterday and running a very low grade fever. She kept an eye on it and when she didn't show any improvement in 24 hours she called the doctor. They had her go in and do a switch test which came back this evening as a viral infection they want to treat in the hospital. So we checked in through the ER around 8:30. Now we are waiting for the orders to get in the computer so we know what the plan is. As soon as I know that i'll update more...
It's 10:30 and we still don't know what the heck the doctor wants to do. The nurse is still getting all Maddy's info into the computer. We are also waiting on the IV access team to come put Maddy's line in. So far there has not been any talk about needing a large access point in her neck this time around.
11:00 and Maddy is getting her oral night meds. Still waiting on the IV team to come access her. Doctors orders so far is just for ribavirin every 8 hours for 9 doses. Starting at 2AM! Hopefully that will be all she needs to get rid of this virus!
So that's 72 hours. Hopefully that means she will be out in three days. If you are wondering what ribavirin is check out the blog from last time she had it.
Ago that's what's going on. It's 11:30 so I'm going home now. Ill post again tomorrow after work.
