Mom is improving slowly. Her voice doesn't sound like a squeek and her nose isn't running so profusely. Karley recommended Mucinex and that has helped the cough so I expect that in the next few days, Mom will feel much better.
Her INR level (Coumadin measurement) has dropped to 1.8 which is too now thick and I have spoken to our contact at the coumadin clinic. She's upp'd the dosage for today and then we are supposed to go back on Mom's standard regimine and check her blood in a week. Fat chance! I will continue to check until things stabilize. Meantime, we did chicken soup and yogurt for lunch...diahrea again from the antibiotics...and then had a regular dinner. Mom's taste is gone for the moment along with her appetite.
Tomorrow we go to the Boniva clinic for Mom's arthritis med's. Never a dull moment.
