arglblarglmmmmmrrrrrrglllll
my niece got her gastric tube yesterday. it went fine, and she sailed through surgery ok.
they gave her an IV bag full of lactated ringers after the surgery. i know that's pretty common, i seem to recall it being in most every IV i've ever had and pretty nearly every one i've seen on another person. unfortunately, it can be toxic to people with mitochondrial disease, which is the presumptive diagnosis for my niece. luckily my sister noticed and shut off the IV and got a nurse to change it out. no word yet on what (if any) damage occurred or what the consequences will be.
just pray.
