Slowly Recovering

As I watch the Troponin levels as time goes on, the numbers are going down considerably.

They made the decision during morning rounds, that I’ll be moving out of the ICU sometime today, or tomorrow. Most likely they will be releasing me tomorrow.

I did tell them though, however, that infectious disease needs to have a solid game plan before I am discharged. Yesterday, he did make some changes to the antibiotics, and antifungals. I did tell my cardiologist that he needs to call them, and tell them to make sure everything will stay the same for the next 6 weeks, as I am improving on these meds (I tell them this, and they don’t believe me).

My WBC is improving, but very slowly. Infectious disease did switch me to posaconazole. Due to Voriconazole having interaction issues with the blood thinner. I am still doing vancomycin every 12 hours, as this has always been the miracle drug thats brought me back several times.

As I was writing this, Dr Kaufman came into my room. The game plan is 6 weeks of Vancomycin, Ceftriaxone, and Posaconasole. On top of the meds I will need for anti-rejection for the stents, the cholesterol meds, as well as the blood thinners. I think my message I “sent” to her partner yesterday hit home with her, because she immediately caved. She apologized. I showed her the email I sent to the front desk, the mold results from the apartment. I think tonight I just became the practices’ #1 priority.

Just a quick update.
