Abby seems to be feeling a little better. We got through the whole day today with no fever and only one dose of Motrin. She has only been willing to eat yogurt and applesauce the last couple days so I know her throat is still hurting her. I am pretty sure the fever was just from the virus that caused the blisters on her throat.
However, issue #2 (blood in urine) is still not resolved. The test came back negative for a UTI, so they need to test her urine again. We are going to wait about a week to see if whatever is causing it clears on its own. Then I have to take Abby to be "bagged" at a lab. Apparently they attach a little bag that sticks to her to catch her pee. Once it catches enough they will collect the urine and we are free to go. Using the bag instead of a catheter also ensures that the blood in the urine wasn't caused by trauma from the catheter. Hopefully, her urine will come back clear. If they find blood again they will begin running more tests to try to figure out why.
