Overdose

Ma has been having pain in her legs, especially her right leg. Last night she was in a lot of pain. The Norco (Vicodin) was taking too long to take effect, so the nurse gave her 2 mg of Dilaudid at around 3:30am after consulting with the on-call doctor. Apparently this was too much, and the day shift nurse could not wake up Ma. Her respiration was 8, and her blood pressure was low. The nurse had to give Ma two doses of Narcan to wake her up. Even then she was still groggy. Don't know if this is considered a hospital error.

The pain in Ma's leg is possibly due to DVT. She's having an ultrasound done this morning.

In addition, she's having a colonoscopy done this morning to see what's causing her bad diarrrhea. To prep her, she was given a water enema last night and this morning.
