Answer to Question 1

MCV should remain the sameit is not affected by hydration. Hgb and Hct should drop below normal after hydration if she is anemic. BUN should be in the normal range and Na, K, and Cr should drop slightly. Glucose should drop some, but being treated for diabetes would have an effect on the drop in glucose also.

Answer to Question 2

Almost at the 5th percentile for weight and less than the 5th percentile for height. For a normal birth at 40 weeks, a 9 month old should be about 20.5 lbs and 28.5 ins for the 50th percentile. At 28 weeks, or 3 months early, 17.5 lbs and 26 ins for the 50th percentile would not be abnormal.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
