I didn’t wait to increase back, I hate seeing her in the reds. She is eating so much more now and her body needs lower glucose levels if her kidneys are going to get in decent shape.

I got her fluids done for the day. Just shy of 100mL. I can tell she doesn’t like how it feels afterwards having a big lump of fluid in her. But it absorbs and she cheers up a bit.

I am already so anxious to get bloodwork again. I want to see if her kidney values are any better! The CKD group experts said wait three weeks. It’s been five days. It will be quite a wait for me.

When I did her fluids I thought I had it in the first time, but I didn’t. We hurriedly clamped the line and I reinserted. Would you have stopped and changed needles again? It’s kind of a pain. I wonder how contaminated and horrible it is that I went ahead with the same needle. It seemed more likely for me to get fluids in if I didn’t stop and spend more minutes wrestling with needles. Her enticing distracting food was already out....

Eta: I was worried about constipation again but she had a bowel movement right after I wrote this.

Hope all are well. <3

 

she looks pretty sweet right now.

 

Love the picture. Yay for a bowel movement. It may not be ideal to use the same needle, but I think under the circumstances it was okay.
