What are you waiting for?
ok, here it goes, tell me how an 84 yr old woman who has survived breast cancer for over 20 yrs, colon cancer in which they removed a large piece of her colon and sewed it back together. the death of a child and her husband, most of her brothers and sisters, can walk into a hospital, and sit for 12 1/2 hours before she is actually looked at, with enormous pain and swelling of her extremities, a unkown type of rash, that after 7 days the doctors still havent concluded what it is!!! she was admitted and treated for 3 days the swelling and rash lightened up, they sent her home the very next day back to the same ... swelling pain, rash has spread further. and they still havent conclusively diagnosed her!! now my problem is .... this is my mother firstly, and how do you send a ederly woman who has these symptoms, and pain, home when you havent cured the symptoms to begin with only lessened them !!! i am soo frustrated!! now the best part its what they " THINK" it might be is vasculitus, which they tell me is the swelling of blood vessels which is what this rash is a result of, that can not only cause major damage to your blood vessels but also internal organ damage, or possibly death... NOW, would you think it was wise to send an 84 yr old woman with all this going on... HOME??? before we knew exactly what it was and had fixed it!!??????????
OK thanks for letting me blow a little steam!! first time blogging, and need a little patience! lol....
