outpatient clinic visit

Monday September 24, 2012

Aaron is finally home. He went to the Dr today and we ended up in the outpatient clinic. He was lathargic, not eating or drinking, hadn't had a wet diaper all day and was very cold.  They found out that his heart rate had dropped to 68 and his body temp was only 94.2. So they sent us to the clinic for some labs, an antibiotic (via IV) and a bolus of normal saline. Once he got some fluids he stated feeling better and his labs came back fine. His body temp stayed low but he seemed to perk up some while we were there. His Dr sent him home since his labs were good and so far he has been doing better. He drank 8 oz and is now sleeping peacefully. Hopefully he will continue to improve and start eating soon.
