Today went pretty smooth clinic started off with a good bang. Got into the lab found a nice vein yes it took them one try to get the needle in. Then went to the cardiology clinic and got into a room they took Makenzie weight she still weighs 25 pounds. Right after echo came and got us they did there thing and then we saw Michelle.
Makenzie's white blood count is a little on the high side so they said she might be fighting off an infection so i need to keep and eye on her to make sure she does not get sick. Her Prograf level was a little low so they bumped up her dose to .58 and we get to go next week to get labs drawn again.
Dr. Everett wants Makenzie to get another halter monitor done next week to see if the results are still good if they are they will want to lower her caffeine dose.
All in all it was a good day, just not excited for winter with the swine flu on the rise, yes she will need the vaccine for it.
I thank my Heavenly Father every day for the health my daughter has and the love she brings to are family.

I'm so glad it was a good visit.
ReplyDeleteHow is the Prograf working out for her? My cousins son, Beckham, takes that instead of Neoral. She has mentioned having to schedule it around food etc but it doesn't have the side-effects like hair growth and swollen gums. Is that what you have noticed?
ya it has been working fine she is still having a hard time with her levels staying steady though. i Can not tell the difference of the hair growth.
