They haven't talked to us directly about it. She is on so so so many meds though that it is possible. What does it do? Sorry I know I can look it up but I can't google anything right now because everything I find makes me more hysterical. I know they have been giving her something in her iv to try to lower her co2 because they are having trouble getting it down on this type of vent.
Eta I think I lost my post, is this the steroid you talked about in my other post? She has been on steroids since yesterday but I don't believe they think they are having any great effect since the real problem is one of the 2 viruses vs the pneumonia or the asthma type issues they think now she might have now
How scary and overwhelming for you. I'm glad you have people around you that are supportive. Hopefully she turns a corner soon! I was really hoping some time on the vent would give her body time to heal and rest.
