Hangin with Lauren Arkens today in Milwaukee. Shes given me update responsibilities! Yay! So, heres whats up for the the rest of the day. Lauren is going to have a Broncoscopy between 1:00PM and 2:00PM. She is doing it in the ICU. Dr. Biller said that her CT Scan confirmed cloudiness in her lungs. So, we are 100% sure she still has CF (thats a joke, Doctor humor). They want to find out exactly what the cloudiness is. If its just the usual mucus, or if it could be pneumonia. They are going to take a sample and culture it. To get some of it out now, theyll put some hypertonic saline (Salt water... Not as cool as it sounds) to create agitation to get some of the mucus $h!+ out. From there, depending upon what cultures they can find an antibiotic cocktail that fits her needs. Thats all for now. Well be in touch, THANK YOU in advance for all the love and prayers!!!
