I was trying to get to sleep. I heard a phone ring and I thought it was on tv, but it wasn't. Nothing like a call at 3 am to get the adrenaline going. The man said he was from Kaiser and wanted to talk to ![[info]](https://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif){kind=small}
dbubley. In my half asleep state, my first thought was some kind of stupid Kaiser customer survey. I told him she was still at KPPACC and why are you called at 3 am! He said he was from the Kaiser Lab and was checking on her because she had a high potassium count (6.1.) Okay at this point my mind cleared, as I whipped off my cpap mask and jumped out of bed. I don't know why his information didn't include her current location, but I'm glad he got through to me. I assume he called dbubley's number first and I'll probably find a message on her machine tomorrow. It's good to know they have my name and number correctly in their system. He's going to call KPPACC. I thought about calling her, but I don't want to wake her up. I'm sure the staff will do that soon enough. I just sent her a text message, so if she is awake, I should get a call back.
I know I need to get some sleep - I have to get up in 3 hours for work. Puppy class is tonight too. It's going to be a rough day.
I'm so tired of all this scary medical shit. And then there's the swine flu.
*pulling the covers over my head and setting the alarm for a year from now*
Edit/Update: She just called and they are taking her to the hospital. She says she feels fine, but obviously the rehab center doesn't feel they can deal with the high potassium level and possible complications. I'll try to get a few hours sleep and then see what I need to do. Work or hospital or some portion of each.
