Getting Better

I am back at work today and will be posting on Meredith's condition with information from Stephanie. Meredith is doing about as well as she was yesterday. She is up and down but overall she is going up. Her white blood cells are up, but there are no other signs of infection. Nonetheless the Dr. is going to put her on some antibiotics. She also continues to have some crackling in her left lung; they are trying to control this using diuretics. Meredith had an echo cardiogram this morning and everything looked as expected (I can't really say ok since her heart is still very messed up). The band on the pulmonary artery is a little loose but that will give her some room to grow. The cardiologist said that she may get to go to the floor (out of ICU) tomorrow or the next day.
