Guest guest Posted January 17, 2008 Report Share Posted January 17, 2008 It's a good day. We found out today that he was approved for SSI Disability. So now he has Medicaid, and can see a doctor. He had paracentesis yesterday at the hospital, and they got 9 liters. He can breathe and sleep again. How many liters can be drained from his abdomen safely? He has a standing appointment every 2 weeks. He swells back usually within 3 days of the procedure. Is this an indicator of how advanced his disease is? The last paracentesis they drained 12 liters.... I was wondering why sleep patterns are all screwy? Any ideas? Thanks! Bobbi --------------------------------- Looking for last minute shopping deals?
