Hello - Toby's sodium continues to go up, it's at 132, which is the base number of the normal range. They ran some tests on his thyroid to see if this was the cause of the sodium being low in the first place, and everything came back normal. They're still not sure what would have caused the sodium to drop so low. Tomorrow is the MRI. I'm nervous that it's going to show some damage from possible seizures he may have had while his sodium was so low (seizures that we didn't know he was having). Please pray that his brain was not damaged from the sodium being low, which also caused his brain to swell. We're hoping the MRI will explain some more of the issues he's been having. Even though he continues to have episodes of apnea (not breathing for seconds at a time), his oxygen continues to stay up at 99%, so the breaths he is taking are deep and good, and he is oxygenating his lungs. Please pray that we can get to the bottom of what is causing his breathing problems, feeding problems, and sodium levels. Thank you to everyone for staying up to date on our little Toby, and for praying. We can feel your prayers. God continues to lift us up! :)
