She broke her humorous and it didnt heal over a years time. She finally decided to have surgery, this happened last Wednesday, February 3rd. She has Cirrhosis of the Liver and since she has been in her bilirubin has spiked from 2.1 to 9.7. Her INR score was at 1.2 up to 1.5 and now 1.4. Her Creatinine is at .53, BUN 19. She has had 4 units of platelets over the last 5 days - down to 50K and has had 4 units of hemoglobin down as low as 7.6. Her MELD score prior to surgery was 12, 13 on Friday and now with the spike in Bili its at 19. She has had a catscan of her arm and stomach to ensure there is not internal bleeding, both negative.. as they are trying to figure out the bleeding problem. More lab results: albumin 2.3, protein 5.4, SGOT 59, Protime 14.1. What is your suggestion, there has not been a gastroenterologist seeing her in the hospital. Currently she has an attending that is an internist, a hematologist and a orthopedic doctor. I am scared they are going to send her home, she will continue to decline with platelets and hemoglobin and her liver function will worsen. Any suggestions on what we should do next?
For cirrhosis if you can take her to gastroenterologist that would be much better. Make sure that she eat high protein die tie white egg yolk and cheese.
