First off,this was not the post I intended to write. It was supposed to be a lot more upbeat and positive,with a little good news as well. However,that’s not the case. I feel like we’re going in circles
Today,in about 6 hours,we were supposed to be going back to the hospital Karen had the surgery at last week for pre admissions surgical testing for the serious procedure opening her arm in about 11 days. That has to be moved.
Karen’s symptoms are beginning to change and evolve into extremely frightening territory. Complications have occurred the last two dialysis treatments. On Saturday,she had to stop the treatment 15 minutes early due to a pounding headache.
Tuesday’s treatment was something else altogether. The entire last hour of dialysis not only did she develop the headache again,she began to become nauseous. This has never happened before. When I got her out of the medical car,she didn’t look like my wife. After I got her upstairs to bed,the weakness just overtook her and she fell asleep.
That night and today,the same complications of extreme chills on urinating persisted and became even more intense. The new aspect I wasn’t expecting and mistook for gas. Her urine had an overwhelming smell of sulphur. This is DEFINITELY not anything we’ve encountered before. I contacted one of her kidney doctors immediately.
In the morning,I’m bringing her to his office,with the sample I collected,that is extremely cloudy. We’ve been chasing the radiology place for the MRI she had last week on her abdomen and pelvis. He wants to see that first,but he believes she has a bad infection and might have to be hospitalized. We are praying that will not happen,but I’ll post later as I know.
In the meantime, please if you can help us with anything, we would appreciate it immensely. I need to keep this fight going. When unexpected events such as this pop up,there are always additional expenses, additional stress,and additional worry. I assure you,I will fight to win.
Need all your love and support and prayers,
Brian.
