Not too much to report today. H still remains on the vent, with no talks on when they will extubate her again.
She spent most of today sedated, but they are hoping to reduce sedation tomorrow so she can start communicating.
Today the surgeons also ordered a CT scan and the infectious disease team stopped by for a review--they are hoping to get to the bottom of this so she can get back on track.
Yesterday she was hit with a lot of anti-rejection drugs, antibiotics and steroids to try to control whatever is holding her back, which is probably what made her so anxious and paranoid.
The good news (we always end with this) is that her sodium issues have finally been resolved. The pieces of the puzzle are slowly coming together.
Hoping to figure this setback out soon!
