What we know . . .

Ammonia 132 (not nearly as bad as I thought it would be but still pretty high)
WBC 15.6 ( infection somewhere?)
Creatinine 1.5 (this may help him on the list but I'm not sure. The other stuff that matters is not that bad)
Hemoglobin is critically low
Hematocrit is 23

Head CT scan is clear - obviously this is good news.
Abdomen CT scan shows nothing that we didn't already know about.

Still working on urine test.

He will be getting some blood. I'm pretty sure about that. Nothing else is that far out of whack. This just blows my mind. He is also a bit dehydrated so the IV fluid will help too.

Hopefully by this time tomorrow (which will actually be Thursday) he will be a lot better.

He has a clean room assignment so he will be moving shortly.
