[QUOTE="Jungleland, post: 279371, member: 4598"] Home again. More blood work. pediatrician put her on Zofran for the nausea/vomiting. Her liver is not enlarged but it is really inflammed. If nausea medication doesn't work, then I need to bring her back in ASAP. Has her on chicken broth, Gatorade and Saltine crackers only. I am to bring her back in on Friday morning for follow up blood work to see if the Liver enzymes have lowered. If things get worse or not much better, then she will be ordering an Ultrasound and maybe a CAT scan. She is testing her for Hep A & B, Mononeucleosis, Epstein Barr and several others I forget the name of. She thinks that whatever virus we all had weeks ago, for some reason settled in her liver. I was kinda surprised that she didn't admit her but if we can handle this at home I guess that is better for her. She doesn't need to contract any hospital infections!! We have to keep her home and quiet. So far she has had 2 sips of Gatorade, several sips of water and 1 cracker. We shall see in about 20 minutes if she can keep this down. Gonna go lie down with her, try to catch up on the missed sleep. Thanks all!! Vickie [/QUOTE]
