Sandi's Leg-- A Update

Back home from the doctor. The second culture swab--the one from last week--came back showing the infection they thought it was. Apparently, while the antibiotic sort of slowed it down, it did not stop it. So, a new more powerful antibiotic has been prescribed which she will start as soon as they get the prescription filled.

Her kidneys are not doing well so she stays off the diuretic with the hope being that once the infection starts clearing the massive swelling will start going away.

Back next Wednesday to do all this again.

Thank you for the update. I don't know your wife but I feel for the both of you. Hope that the new very strong medicine really helps her. Sorry to hear about her kidney problem. Please give her a hug for me.
