Stable Overnight

Not much to tell. She's had a good night, remains stable with a good bp. She's lost around a litre of fluid and the effects can be felt, the skin on her legs is no longer drum tight and her face is slightly less boxer-like. Late yesterday the lab phoned to say that and indicator in Kays blood for asparagillis, a very nasty fungal infection, had shot up. So the suspicion is that this whole thing is caused by asparagiliis. The problem with this theory is that the indicator showed nothing the rest of the week. Have to wait for the results of the lung investigation before conclusions can be drawn. I have a suspicion that the asparagillis maybe a secondary opportunistic infection.
