Apparently Jen does have a blood clot in her upper left arm. They will continue on blood thinner and she will go for abdominal C T scan and an x-ray to see if there is any hidden infection causing the ever persistant fever. The Dr came in yesterday and said that he just doesn't know what is causing it. She had lots of shallow breathing last night but sounds better this morning. She is like a little pin cushion as they continue to take blood cultures 4 times now that they have removed the picc line so the needles have to go into her hand and arm.OUCH. Hope fully we will have some answers today.
UPDATE
Dr. just came in and said her white blood count is not good.He will start her on the heavy duty antibiotics and he has called the Infectious disease Drs. to talk to us. If they can get her blood pressure up they will still take her for the scan.
Please keep praying and we will keep you posted.
Love from The Parents & Jen
