They have told her this morning that they have had to send her bloods to London to find out what the virus is. So it seems that she is going to be in for a while longer yet. Still talking about taking a biopsy but are not doing anything about it. Why is it taking so long to find out what the fudge is going on?
WELSHY.....this may sound odd, but I think that all is not TOO bad. It sounds as though it is a viral hepatitis and if the liver cells keep "leaking" enzymes into the blood stream they may consider putting her on steroids.
Why are they hanging back on liver biopsy?
It has it`s complications and one of them is internal bleeding which may be difficult to control in a jaundiced patient.
Trust me......all will be well.
