Busy Day

So last night after I left, she had x-rays taken of her left knee. This morning she had a fistulagram of her right arm. They put a stent in. She did okay with that. She ate a good lunch and then they took chest x-rays. The white blood cell test showed the white blood cells congregating in her lungs. That's why they took the chest x-ray. She also was given more vancomycin today. She had a vicadin around 2:30 and an hour later some morphine for the pain. I asked Dr. Yu today about her broken leg. Dr. Cho had wanted to see her two weeks after the 10th of August! It's September 1st. So, Dr. Alexander, another Ortho dr. will see her tomorrow. She has to have new x-rays of her right leg taken before tomorrow when she sees Dr. Alexander. Marty got to her room around 4pm for dialysis. I'll be going back in a few minutes to feed her dinner. She wasn't as sleepy today, but she wasn't that alert either. She was very uncomfortable! I have to tell them to give her pain meds, because if they ask her if she wants them, she says no! She's not very with it! Maybe she'll perk up after dialysis!
