Rollercoaster Ride

There are a lot of ups and downs these past days.  Right now we could actually see Jessica going down.  She had a rough night and her morning has definitely not been pain free.

The pain management team just left and jess will now be put on Nubain .  We thought there was a shortage but it was a nurse that said they have some.   Jess did amazing on this stuff last time.  Fingers crossed it works just as well. They have prescribed nubain for every 2 hours or as needed and they have moved her Tylenol every 4 hours so it over laps with the ketorolac.

The not so good news just came In.  Her hemoglobin has dropped more overnight.  Yesterday she was sitting get at 80 and now her levels have dropped to 70. This now means she requires a transfusion.  They are just hooking her up as i type. Hopefully this helps top her up and then her body can produce it better afterwards.
