Hi all,
We were really looking forward to visiting OCuk, that is on hold for the moment, As people know Paola had 2 appointments last week, everything was going well, just tweaking stuff, Dialysis and cancer meds.
Paola has a weakened immune system so we are nervous every time we visit the hospital, after all the waiting rooms are full of sick people. (we try to do as much as possible via phone consults)
Day after the Wednesday appointment she started with sickness, nausea and the other end as well.
It got worse over the weekend, it is especially dangerous (a stomach bug) because of dehydration and strain on her body.
Did all we could over the weekend and then Monday night it started to scare me, at 1am we called 111 and they ordered an Ambulance (category 2) 4am Tuesday (today)we are in A&E in her own room due to the immunity problems.
Then they check her heart and now the is in the Coronary Care ward they are very concerned her heart tests and blood work is showing not good things.
No one has a diagnosis yet, the problem is with the Cancer+Medication, Diabetes, Renal failure+ Medication the damage to her kidney's throw off a lot of the blood work readings anyway.
No one knows what is wrong all we know is it isn't the best news.
I took a picture last Wednesday at the Hospital while having some baseline tests, she was so happy and looking forward to the visit to OCuk.
And now she is completely worn out and unable to eat.
Sorry for the downer post. I haven't slept in over 30 hours I think.
Small update they thin the time with huge amounts of excess fluid may have damaged her heart or it is the diabetes doing damage. or it may be nothing.
