Re: What can you tell me about high ammonia levels?

[Guest guest]

Thanks Dee!

said he talked to one of the doctors at the hospital about his ammonia

level and the

doctor said it varies from person to person. What might be high for one patient

isn't

necessarily for another. The dr isn't concerned about his ammonia level and so

far he has no

symptoms of hepatic encephalopathy so that was good news!

He's having am MRCP tomorrow and possibly a pericentisis. He still needs a

cardiac stress

test and EGD to be listed so they're hoping to get those done while he's in the

hospital.

Everyone seems like they really want to get him listed soon.

He asked me tonight to help him write something for our baby that is due in July

in case he

doesn't make it. After I hit him with a pillow and told him he was going to

be fine, I told

him that if it would make him feel better, I would be happy to help him write

anything for

the baby he wants.

He's having a pretty hard time emotionally right now. And they still don't know

what's

causing the darn fever! Hopefully they'll have the results of the cultures back

by the time the

docs are in to see him in the morning.
