In the rush posting yesterday, I forgot the one good thing about ending up sepsis. They ran a ton of lab work and found my kidney functions were way off. My problems started when the cancer blocked off my left ureter where it entered the bladder. Now, it's my right kidney acting up. Seem where they sewed the ureters to the new pouch, I've built up scar tissue that wasn't letting the right kidney drain. They had to punch another hole in my back, and insert a tube through the kidney, and place a stent into the ureter where the scarring is. Probably in a month or so, they will go back in and swap the stent for a larger one. It will also have to come out, but the hope is that they can stretch the ureter so the kidney drains.

It's a good thing my RN wife took an early retirement, cause she ended up with a 24/7 patient. Other than not being allowed to sleep in the ICU, she was rarely out of my sight for 15 minutes at a time. She also ended up taking care of me once out of the ICU. The other nurses knew she was in the room with me, so pretty much left most of my care in her hands. They had loaded me up with so many IV fluids, I was ready to pop. Literally had trouble breathing due to the extra pressure from the excess fluid pushing against my lungs. After three days of Dee hinting I needed some lasix, they finally gave me an IV. This pulled so much fluid off that she was up all night draining my pouch every hour. Of course, it also depleted my potassium and magnesium, which can lead to all kinds of heart problems. She was there monerating me the whole time. Thank you for the prayers and warm thoughts!!!!

Hi TeeBubbaDee!! So happy to see you here again. What an ordeal you are going through. I am glad you made it to the hospital in time! You have been on an amazing roller coaster of hope and digression. I really feel for you and your wife. I am optimistic that you will recover if you stay positive that you are indeed being looked after and that the love you have in your own heart will be the force that will propel you back to your life. We're here for you.

Hi Guys, I'm still here. (barely) I left the hospital late Sat after a 10 day stay. (4 in ICU) About a week and a half ago my wife and I left the hospital where my last of 6 hoses was removed from my body. It was the first time in MONTHS that I didn't have a tube stuck in my somewhere. By the time we got home, about 40 minutes, I started shaking uncontrollably. Temp was only 99.1, so I took some tylenol and took a nap. When I got up I still had the shakes and temp was up to 101.2. A while later I got to 102.8, and my wife called the hospital at 10:00 PM. They wanted me to come in, and my wife had me there by 11:30. Didn't take long for the temp to get to 103.4, and they shipped me to the ICU figuring I was septic. They were right, and they finally threw 6 different antibiotics at me to stop the fever at 104.5. I was told that if we had screwed around until the next morning that I would have been to far gone to save. It was kinda touch and go as it was. (there are days in the ICU that I have no memory of) I'm still weak, but it will take some time to dig myself out of this hole I've found myself in.
