Thanks for the insight. They tried reducing her sedation last night but her temperature spiked. They upped the sedation and ran some blood tests to see if they missed any sources of infection. They think it may have been a possible anxiety attack as she was coming around and that may have elevated her heart and respiration and driven the spike in her temperature. They are proceeding slowly in consultation with her psychiatrist. The wait is excruciating but they don’t have any major concerns outside of her oxygen requirements so baby steps towards bringing her out of sedation and hopefully they can bring her around over the next few days.
