The nurse came and woke us up at 4am to let us know that dad had some mucus in his airway and when they were sucking it out his oxygen levels dropped so they had to put him on a ventilator. Because he is on so many different medications, and the medication to control the seizure activity is so strong his body is having a difficult time regulating his blood pressure, oxygen level, and temperature. As of this morning the seizures have stopped but his blood pressure is too low and his temperature is too high. The neurologist told us they are having a difficult time regulating his blood thinners. If the level is too high then his blood is too thin and could cause bleeding in the brain. If the levels are too low it could cause more blood clots. They took him off the EEG monitor and are getting a CT scan to check for brain bleeds. They say he is in very critical condition and to just take it day by day. His chest x-ray came back ok (no signs of pneumonia) but we are still waiting for his blood work to come back to be sure.
