Lauren is still in the pediatric ICU. They were hoping to move her to the regular floor today but her blood levels are still off. The main thing they have come up with is that the ACTH is lowering her potassium and causing these other side effects. Today they have been giving her fluids almost constantly. So for example, they gave her 250ml of fluid so they would expect to get a similar amount in urine but she was having over 700mls. Then they would make up the difference in giving her more fluids to compensate. They are trying to figure out how much fluids she needs to stay hydrated. Her heart is looking good today, all tests looked normal. her heart rate was in the high 50s low 60s last night and today it has been in the low 100 (normal range). She was awake most of the day, although just not able to move or do much. It will take us at least 3 weeks to wean of ACTH and they told us to expect at least 5-6 more days in the hospital. Overall it seems she is doing much better today.
