We are finally home again after five long days of hospital and I really don’t know where to start.
Ivy’s bloods are all back within normal ranges now. Her haemoglobin is 111g/L. Her levels for the haemolysis is on the high end of normal(read only just). Her electrolytes, liver function and iron studies all normal.
She grew two lots of bacteria in her blood and for the second time in a matter of weeks was considered septic.
She started on a new medication, an immunosuppressant to try to stop the active cycle of pemphigus. At minimal dose, so far, so good.
I am thread bare, my friends. I will hopefully be in a better frame of mind tomorrow.
