This COPD patient, who has now gone in to ICU once more in less than two months, had been losing hair for quite a few days before coming into hospital. Had been on Prednisone less than a month before and had stopped taking last week of prescription due to extreme stomach upset.
She'd never had any hair loss in her life. Has been found to be anemic in this last hospitalization, and at least on one other, years back. Any clues to what this could be?
Has been on no other meds, except Cardizem which she's taken for many years. Aside from albuterol inhaler had been using ipratropium with nebulizer. But even this last one is not really totally new for her.
Had been in hospital less than month ago as well for very short stay w/ pneumonia. Only other thing I can think of is the CIPRO. Could this have caused it?
