This has been Avery most of the day. Asleep.
After sleeping a lot yesterday as well, she had an EKG first thing this morning.
The good news, is that the Cardiologist didnโt find anything seriously concerning with her heart.
It does still show a small bit of fluid around the heart (pericardial effusion) and looks a small bit larger than her last EKG, but that was done weeks ago.
Again, not enough to cause concern, but theyโre going to recheck either tomorrow or Monday, based on how the rest of tonight goes.
Theyโll be able to get a better, more accurate, comparison with todayโs results.
They may also do a CT Scan on Monday to check her lungs and heart once more.
Additionally, they ran a virus panel this evening to make sure there isnโt an infection causing her to be so tired.
Thankfully she tested negative for COVID-19, Flu and RSV.
Finally, the BMT team said it is โnormalโ for transplant kids to just be tired.
Thatโs she been playing/dancing so hard the last few days, and with little reserve, she is just tired and catching up on rest.
Weโd like to think sheโs just resting up for the trip home and sheโll be good to go soon!
Itโs definitely been a stressful day as we continue to check things off the list of causes for her lethargic mood.
Really hoping she is more alert and playful tomorrow.
Please keep lifting her up.
We truly hope this is her last hurdle.
