BLOODY HELL! I was hoping I would come here to read that the equipment was malfunctioning and that yesterday's results were false positives. I don't suppose that she's ever had any problems with Biliary Atresia since you've said she's always been healthy?

Interesting choice with the choice of Heparin. I would think they would want to prevent more clots from forming with something akin to Lovenox rather than Heparin which has the potential for the clots to start dissolving within her liver and thus start internal bleeding within the hepatic region.

I can understand her not wanting you to ask further questions or see her chart. When I was diagnosed, my Father in Law who is a Pulmonologist at the hospital where I was admitted wanted to read my chart and discuss my case with my treating physicians. My husband vehemently objected and told him he wanted him to be "just a family member". I'm glad he did. He's been a great support to us. I know the outcome wouldn't have changed, and it was good for us to see him in "another light" other than being a physician.

I continue to wish you all well.
