Posted 10:45a..m

I called ICU twice once at 2:00a.m. his nurse was great she said he was resting comfortably but his heart rate was low. She had called the doctor and he said it was ok. I called again at 5:00a.m. his nurse was not available but another nurse said he was doing fine. What else are they going to tell you that he is in terrible pain.

Blair and I could not get in to ICU until 8:30a.m. this morning. When we got to his room he was sitting up in the chair, pain was better but he had been vomiting. They had given him zofran twice and it didn't seem to work. They changed the med for nausea and now he is resting comfortably.

3 doctors have been in today. They are going to do dialysis today and hopefully that will help get rid of the anethsetic and make him feel better. Probably do dialysis today and tomorrow. They have him on fluid restriction now and did not give him much at all during surgery. 1 1/2 quarts per day is probably what he will be limited to. He is still in ICU, still no rooms available.
