Emergency Room Visit
We were so happy to send back the billy light earlier this week. However, yesterday we thought Addison was beginning to look a little orange again. We called a nurse to get her opinion. Knowing we had another billy rubin check on Monday, we didn't feel comfortable waiting the weekend knowing Addison's history. We were advised to go to the Emergency Room (clinic was closed) just to be sure. Deb happened to be at our house at the time so she took Amelia for the night while we got Addison ready for yet another trip to the doctor. One more poke to her heel was added and we waited for the results. At her last appointment the billy rubin number was 13.4. Last night her results came back elevated to 15.1. The Allina truck brought another billy light to our house today. Addison needs to be under the light at all times until Monday when she has another check up. We are hopeful that this will do the trick and we can put this jaundice stuff behind us so we can hold and snuggle Addison.
