Hospital visit again....

Hospital visit again..........

Big Bird is in the hospital. He started with low grade fevers last night. So after dealing with that off and on for several hours last night we headed to the ER at 11:30pm, I left the ER at 6:45am. They admitted him. There is an infection, just not sure what and where, as his blood tests are "normal" for him. Just the fluctuating temps. Frustrating for him, but for us as well......

The doctor will be back again to check on him. He was experiencing some tenderness in the right quadrant area-something new, but not necessarily anything...we hope!!!! No signs of ascites-good!!!

Will post more when we know more. They are pumping him with IV antibiotics and fluids. And of course his normal doc is out of town. And again-he gets sick on Tuesday-what is with Tuesday?????????

***BREAKING NEWS- Big Bird had his Liver Transplant on Wednesday December 12, 2007***

Adventures in Big Bird's Liver World is an account of the daily adventures, trials, frustrations and workings of living with PSC. My brother, aka Big Bird, was diagnosed with PSC in 2000, after battleing UC for many years. He was listed for a transplant in May 2007. We now await the infamous "call". In the mean time, this is where we vent, poise questions and ramble about life, doctor appointments, illness, good days & bad days.
