News for those ABers kind enough to have expressed concern and interest in Mrs A’s illness.
After 12 days in the cardio unit she has gone down from 91.6 kg to 77.7, nearly all of it the oedema fluid. They want another 12 kilos from her!
Thus, the various diuretics have done their work, her kidneys are still functioning, her peripheral problems (foot ulcers and the like) are gradually being addressed, and they can move on to her heart.
Nothing but praise for Dr Nigel Stephens and his cardiology team. All heroes (and of course at a hospital in a London borough where Covid is rife).
I hope we get a few more years to add to our 51 together!
Pleased for you, she must feel so much better already, this may be a regular procedure as long as it works. I know one lady who celebrated 50 dry out admissions 53 before it stopped being effective so fingers crossed.
