My brother is in hospital with this , went to see him last night and he seems ok in himself but obviously very scared .

He is on antibiotics to try and sort out infection which we will know if working in the next day or two . But they have also told him he has got a very leaky valve which needs to be sorted asap .Infection is obviously making this worse .

Just freaking out a bit for him and trying to be sensible and not panic .

Any advice would be really appreciated .

Hi travellingwilbury

Sorry, only just checked back into this thread.

Thank you Grin

He is out of ICU now and so far so good .
Hopefully because of his age and his general level of fitness his recovery should be good .
