Thursday 11/1/18

Meghan had bleeding again overnight and she was given 2 units of blood. This morning she was getting pale again and was mouthing to Rob that she felt the same as she did yesterday. Nurses did stat labs and hemo is down to 5.5, they are getting her more blood now. Doctors are coming up with a plan for today. 

Plan is to give her more blood products and hope she would clot on her own. They turned her drains & vac off so the new blood products would stay in her abdomen. They will retake labs in 90 mins to see where numbers are at. Meghan’s abdomen was building up and they wanted to take her down to get in and see what was happening. Went to surgery around 1230pm.

She had another bigger bleed. A vein had given out and it was an area that was affected by the pancreas. They fixed it and Meghan is stable. They repacked her abdomen with pressure and will recheck everything in 2 days. Rob told us Meghan is pretty swollen but that is because of all the products she has been receiving over the past two days. She was having some pain so doctors are upping her pain meds to help get her comfortable.
