Good News!!!

The good news is that Emma's lab results came back and everything has normalized except the calcium which could take awhile. This is great news!!!
I did a little research last night on lasix and the side effects were right on with Emma. Her "reflux" wasn't reflux. It was nausea and vomiting (side effects). Dehydration, losing electrolites, renal complications (kidneys), etc. So we definitely hit the spot. I'm just soooooo thankful we didn't go ahead with the g-tube and still have all these problems. And then find out this is the problem when we had put her through the surgery and back on the vent. etc. So Praise God!!!
