Meghan was up a lot last night and didn’t get much sleep. Her hemo this morning dropped to 6.5 and they are giving her a unit of blood. White count is still around 29.6 and platelets are at 74. ACES is going to change her wound vac and place new packing to help with this slow bleed. Doctors are going to run a TEG test. This test is to see how her blood is clotting. Vitals are good and she still is doing ok off the ventilator. The TEG test came back 100% normal. Around 7pm ACES was running a few test because Meghan started to hallucinate a little bit. They are testing her blood to see if she is retaining CO2. Doctors don’t think it is the Ritalin because it was only just started yesterday but aren’t 100% sure what is causing it. Test for the CO2 came back ok, so for now she will stay off the ventilator. Nurse checked her blood sugar and that was 92. Meghan is resting now. In the morning when they do labs they are going to check kidney and liver levels too. Ritalin has been stopped. Meghan is asleep now, hopefully she gets a good nights rest.
