Pretty darn interesting times today. We are titering Josie up on the pulmonary hypertension medicine and I think she has been getting some side effects. She complained of back pain yesterday and today so I got her in to the ped (who kindly kindly squeezed her in) to have a urinalysis and get her checked over.
Kidneys look good. Kid looks good. O2 sats were 98%. This is quite amazing - they were 93% before we started this last med. Looks like this powerful drug is actually working (a first!)
And we had the best tubing change out ever - mostly because Josie got distracted and I reached over and clipped the old button off her. It happened before she had a chance to panic and thrash.
So - she feels kind of rotten - probably side effects of the med, but she is doing really well.
It was the best of times. It was the worst of times. :-)
