May 27th, 2016

So Mia continues to be having a rough go! She's been spiking higher temps 2-3 hours into an IV Tylenol dose. This morning she was 104.4 and has been completely irritable. Infectious disease finally got the name of the bacteria, Enterobacter cloacae. The suspicion is that the sapovirus she was diagnosed with a few days ago crossed into her blood stream. Now that she's on the right antibiotic she should start improving within the next few days. They will continue to draw blood cultures to make sure it clears and that she's on the right antibiotic being a lot of these bacteria are resistant to some antibiotics. Hoping she rests over the weekend and starts recouperating before starting chemo and steroids again on Monday.
