Back in the hospital.



Recommended Posts

So I started running 104.5 fever last night. My husband rushed me to the ER. Turns out I have a small leak. They have me on full IV liquids and strong antibiotics. Dr is hoping that will cure it. If not it's back to surgery. I knew something wasn't right. I have felt awful all week

I hate this!

I hope u feel better too, I'm hoping that I'm not running a temp as well... I'm 2 days post op and just out of the hospital this afternoon. So I'm monitoring myself.

I totally feel you. A week after I came home from a nine day post-op stay (I was diagnosed with a rare endocrine/kidney disorder so I had to stay a week extra to treat that) I was back in the hospital for a weekend with a severe kidney infection. I fought going to the ER because I had just spent over a week in the hospital and I was miserable and sick of it, but it turned out to be the best thing for me. When I left the hospital I finally felt better! It was worth the hospital stay just to feel somewhat normal again!

Good luck, and keep us posted!

I actually was moved to the ICU last night. I was in sepsis from the leak. It has become very dangerous now.

I'm so sorry. I was in the ICU for awhile too, during my first stay. I was upset at first, but I felt the move was a good thing after a bit because I never felt ignored, everybody was on top of my treatment and able to come help me the second I needed help. They also had access to medications the other hospital units didn't have, and they could order and perform procedures the other units couldn't (that's where I got my PICC line and hardcore antibiotics). I credit the ICU for getting me healthy enough to go home.

I'm sending lots of positive thoughts!

I just had a PICC line put in. It is so much better than the IVS. I had an IV in each arm since they were giving me so many antibiotics and fluids.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
