Clinic day

Today Makenzie had clinic here at PCMC for the first time since we have been back from Colorado This time dad was able to go she was excited, she was a little nervous even though she sees her doctor's here more than she does in Colorado. She loves Miss Carrie (transplant Coordinator in Aurora).
Today was a long visit I mean long she got her blood drawn like she always does but she needed her blood drawn twice because some of it clotted the first time and couldn't get all the results. So first it was a veiness then a finger poke and we get to go back on Monday cause one of the vials that clogged was her medicine levels which she took right after she got her blood drawn the first time. So she gets another finger poke on Monday :(.
Then she got her Echo which also took forever for some reason. Then we had to take her to get her blood drawn for the second time. We then got to see Michelle and she said that Kenzie looks so good. We also met the Pacemaker doctors and they checked her pacer and made a couple of adjustments, they said it looks great. We then finally saw her cardiologist and he listened to her and said that she has a 3rd air sounding ( I don't know what they called it) but they said they would watch it but it isn't serious they said anyone can have it but it is new for her. Which makes me nervous.
Then they wanted her to get an x-ray so they have a base line of how her pacemaker looks inside her. Then we saw her cardiologist one more time to make sure she was good to go. So we will see them in another month which again I do not mind.
She also is going to see a dietitian in a few weeks to try and get her weight back up since she lost a few pounds while we were out in Colorado.
