We increased Aimee’s medication again yesterday afternoon. Unfortunately so far her output has gone up! We had to replace more fluids this morning than we had to replace the past 2 days. We have to wait until tomorrow to re-evaluate the numbers with the team, but the trend so far today is not looking any better. So far it actually trending even higher. :( :( :(
In good news, she is feeling more comfortable. She perked up and even enjoyed a movie with me. Probably she is feeling less bloated, because her output is higher. Ugh. Slowing her small intestine down so that she can absorb more fluids is also causing build up and not allowing gases out. :/ but we need her to stay hydrated without IV help. Poor Aimee. The things she needs always seem to be the very things that cause her pain or discomfort.
