Amputation seems to be on everyone's minds.
I have had 2 or 3 surgical teams and infectious disease team, as well as others.
I am exhausted and may have slept through appts.
Orthopedic team said possibility of surgery. Discuss after more tests.
Infectious disease team put me on antibiotics for infection. It seems to be working! Fever down, blood pressure down.
Dr Tulin explained now that the infection was in my bones and that I would need an amputation.
I have not had a meal today. Athena called the nurse to find out why. The nurse looked over chart and saw there was an order for no food or drink due to possible surgery. Since surgery has not even been scheduled or agreed upon, nurse talked to dietary to take my dinner order.
