Miranda had her follow up echo today and it was slightly better. The game plan is to change her lasix from IV to oral and add 2 more diuretics. Give her a break from tests and labs tomorrow and then Wed. do another echo. If that one is some better then they will maybe discharge her home with the 3 meds and follow up with an echo next week. This back and forth is about to drive us all crazy. I am going to get the other girls to bring up for a visit tomorrow and that will give us a change from this dull routine. I will update when we know more, which will probably be Wed. Thank you all for your friendship and prayers and please continue to pray for her.
