    Bowel Movement:Occurred after nap. Fairly good volume; good consistency, although the turd was, again, rather large; very easy elimination; easy clean-up.
Medication Changes:
  • Upped bedtime lisinopril, again, from 15 mg to 20 mg
  • Upped sitting O2 from 4/lpm to 5/lpm through bedtime because her breathing was significantly more labored than usual and she was doing some dry hacking
  • extra glipizide (10 mg) at dessert because BG was so high after napping
  • 10 mg furosemide about 1 hour before bedtime in order to pull off torso water retention
    Miscellaneous Snack Note:  Had three squares of Ghiradelli chocolate at 1630 during a watching of the movie Chocolat; about half way through she popped up and said, "Do we have any chocolate in the house?" We did.
    Dinner:  Costco Chicken Florentine, steamed broccoli with Greek Feta Vinaigrette dressing
Sleep:
  • Awake at 1330
  • Down for nap at 1900
  • Up from nap at 2100
  • Down for night at 0145
  • Awake 10.25 hours
