Hadn't planned on adding anything else tonight but we have a slight complication. He's running a fever, 102.2 and was having chills. The dr. has ordered some antibiotics and lots of labwork to see if it is something to really worry about or just a result of the surgery.

He also just had a pain pill and he said it is working well. It has some Tylenol in it so it will probably help with the fever also. The labs were just done and the chills have subsided. Blood pressure is still dropping, went from the high of 110 to a new reading of 89/50. They have discontinued the continuous O2 sat readings since his last few were above 90, but the O2 is still being used.

Hopefully, this will be the last entry for tonight. I don't know about Bill but I'm just about ready to turn the lights out and try to get some sleep before we are invaded for vitals! I know it's necessary but they could try to be quiet!
