Guest guest Posted August 23, 2002 Report Share Posted August 23, 2002 I am so worried about you! You need to be hospitalized so they can get to the cause of this terrible infection and treat it with IV antibiotics. You must get that wound drainage cultured so they can find the best antibiotics to treat it. I would be screaming not only with the terrible pain but for an infectious disease consult and a second opinion orthopedic consult. Do not let them send you home again with a pain pill and the attitude of we will wait till Monday.As a friend of mine who was in the USAF Nurse corps. with me and then went to law school says " Ask them if they know how to spell the word LAWSUIT. " It is your leg.they are messing about with.You have been the soul of patience! Louise in Alabama Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
