She was on Profinol, but they took her off of it yesterday. She still isn't aware yet, but when she starts to wake she panics & chokes and then she goes back to sleep. She was so out of it when she went into the hospital that I think she has no idea what happened to her. So they give her something to relax. The doc says that she was so toxic that it will take quite a few days to get it all out of her system so her brain can function well. They want her awake more before taking her off of the ventilator completely, but she has done well on the tests yesterday and today, so they may take her off tomorrow (Thursday).
The good news is that the kidney specialist signed her off, she has 100% kidney function again!
