Nothing like a day at home! No tests or procedures today, so Alyssa gets to spend a day resting and catching up on missed TV shows recorded on her DVR. Yesterday's labs were very good - with Crit leading the way, staying strong at 30. She does have some phosphorous issues, but they are regulating that through pills. There was some concern that the surgeon took out the pic line. This was put in to provide easy & quick access for Alyssa's Soliris infusions. Due to all she has been through, she has incredibly small veins, which requires the IV Team be called in to place the line each time. So to ease the process, she will have a tunnel catheter placed in her chest tomorrow afternoon. This will be the third catheter she has received in a little over a week. This one should be good for several months.
Blood pressure today has been running high again - 156/114. It may take a little while to get the proper meds and doses to bring this under control.
Lyss had several visitors last night and mom & dad joined in by cracking open a new bottle of wine to celebrate - I can't remember a drink ever tasting better!
