Peter has an infection in his leg

[misdee]

they are not quite sure what it is, but think it may leads to ulcers if left untreated. at first they thought it may be a reaction to new meds, but the rash was there before. it has been there for about 4 weeks so not sure how far the infection has managed to get.

he has bad fluid retention and low sodium and potassium levels as well as low blood pressure. apparently with levels this low he shoudl've been passing out all over the place.

sorry to hear this misdee

how are you holding up there?

no idea how he is atm, didnt get chance to call, am at mieows wating for driving lesson. will call him this evening.
if he gets an ulcer it could be very dangerous as his circulation is so poor.

his kidney function is very poor. they want to start some new meds but these can cause more problems so atm is waiting for the specialist to come round to see what to do. infection is being treated, low bp is being treated, but they need to sort out his kidneys desperatly.

How much more can he take?? Hope a heart goes up soon and this gets sorted.....

Misdee - thinking of you and Peter.
